Or it can plug up an oil passage and spin a bearing... But i really doubt it. 
Oil pressure would probably smah it to smithereens if it was plugging up a passage as soon as the motor got pressure.

I did see a couple flying around about an hour after it crawld into there...hopefully he was one of them. If not then I am not going to worry about it...well until it becomes a problem

Obtw, I spun #6 rod last week and as all my friends looked in disbelief at the last gasps of my motor I calmly thought deja vu and then I remebered the Infamous Lithium thread. No worries, forged bottom end on the way with, 9in ford rear, and suspension upgrades. I got into the 11's with the stock bottom end, and the 10 bolt rear lived. Anybody need a 10 bolt?

It's not entirely clear where the bug went "into the head" - I don't know exactly what you were doing - intake manifold off & bug crawled into port?
In any case my opinion is:
Engine = fine
Bug = dead!!!
UNLESS the bug was dragging a paper towel into your engine!
Best of luck to you. You above anyone else should have a sense of humor about this stuff by now...
After reading your post with 1,000,000 responses, I just imagined that bug dragging a paper towel into your engine before you could kill it.

I can tell ya one thing... a bug is NOT going to do ANYTHING to your engine... It will be instantly vaporized... Leave it alone, let it enjoy it's oily journey until you scorch it's *** when you start it up. Watch him sit, relaxing on a counterweight in the bottom end and get pinched between the weight and the block... that'd be the end of that... You're worried about nothing. =)
