Usually the missing pieces get lodged in the small coolant passages in the cylinder heads.

2000-2001 cylinder heads are thin castings to save weight & cost so they will crack causing oil & or coolant leaks, so find the pump pieces now even if you have to pull heads. Or pull them later after they crack from the blocked coolant passages overheating the head.
