Should i be worried

[70Nova]

This might be a stupid question - but its keeping me up at night.
I just had an 454 built and it was dropped off yesterday. When we tried to lift the engine out of the back of the truck we saw that the distributer was going to get hit by the chains... so we took the distributer out. As it came out the bottom o ring on the distributer snapped and a piece of it is missing.

I think it might have fallen back into the hole that the distributer comes out of.

Does this mean i have to take the whole thing apart to look for this little piece of o ring - its a really small piece.

Or is it not a big deal?

thanks guys
