Dropped an allen wrench...

Installing the Add-W1 Oil Catch Can, I dropped a tiny allen wrench tightening the can to the mounting bracket...

I heard it drop down below the catch can install area. I jacked up the car and took some of the under panels off and didn't see it. No idea where it could be in there. What's down there that I should be concerned about? Not sure I should be driving it around not knowing where that damn wrench fell to. Any suggestions?

If you can't find it drive it. I promise you this happens all the time to people.

Appreciate the input, my friend. Just want to make sure there's nothing down there it may have fell into.

If it fell all the way to the bottom you should be fine. I dropped my phone down there and I had to take it in to Kia to have it retrieved. I was embarrassed but I had several people there tell me it's happened "plenty of times." Mainly I was just glad I didn't damage the engine in any way.

Hope that's the case with yours too. 👍
