Was the pump impeller intact when the pump was pulled off? If not, and you can't find all of the pieces, then some small ones could have travelled into the engine and got lodged there, particularly in the small passages in the heads. This could lead to local hot spots and possible head cracking. Backflushing MAY help to find the missing pieces, but is not easy.
