From what I have read, the parts can end up anywhere. Mine was missing most of all the blades and had a ragged edge on what was left. I found one large piece about 1/2" long in the bucket after I flushed it with a hose. After the hose, I poured distilled water through. It ran good for a while, but is running a little hot again about 150 miles later. Next, I'm going to pull the water pump again and inspect. Debris may have come loose and damaged the new one. It's bad news. I'm starting to think that a cheap water pump and more frequent changes might be the best way to go - at least if you have already had one get to failure.
