Thats the right attitude to have. Failures are often opportunities to some of us.

You'll probably be ok with it as is, just change the hell out of the oil, clean the sump like a mad man, use the SPOFA and a filter mag, and throw a cow magnet in the sump. Do that till you don't find any more debris and then always do short service intervals on this one, of 3K or so.
