I'm still in the same boat, as I wait for other parts. I did not catch it that 'early', and did not find any in the heads, valve springs, etc. I'm still rolling the dice on what I'm going to do.

This is all getting slightly out of control.Pull the rocker covers and check around with a magnet and strong torch.
Pull the pushrods and use a stick magnet and check the lifter trays.
Drive the bloody car and stop worrying.
You will have no issues.
Pulling the pan is silly talk.

!I pull the the ole pen magenet trick, and got 5 on the first time I put it in, and 4 a few tries later. So I'm left missing one (If there are 33 per side).

Thanks Vortecfcar for the translation.A word or two slips past me every now and then.
Here are some Aussieisms.
Bonnet=hood
Boot=Trunk
Sump=pan
Mudguard=Fender.
At 4am my brain forgets to translate.
Ciao

get yourself some thin magnets maybe even some that are extendable and have a ball joint head. that will help you fish for them in the senser hole that plugs into the oil pan. It worked well for me when i dropped washers in my oil pan. take of the intake and get a flash light to see if any are caught in there your magnet is your best friend!!!
