I know that JFP in PA has posted in a couple threads about how to flush the engine to get any residual pieces out. It is possible for them to block coolant passages and create problems if they remain.

Note for reassembly: The two bolts that are longer go in the holes with the dowel pins. Use a coated metal gasket (probably included) and no sealant. Torque 10 nm/7 ftlbs
