If it really caused problems, they'd be utterly rife. But they're not. So I surmise it's not something to worry about.

Seeing is believing, the wear below on the VarioCam chain pads is what puts the hard plastic like pieces into the oil system. Depending on how much you drive in the 2200-2600rpm range, the pads should be changed to the updated material pads between 50,K-60,Kmiles.
