Lost a piece of cylinder head plug

While I was replacing the plastic cylinder head plug on a 2002 civic, I broke off a little piece of one of the four clips. I popped off the cylinder head plug with a screwdriver and after I took the plug out, i noticed that one of the four clips was missing a 3-4mm piece. How bad is this? Where will the broken bit end up? The oil pan? What should I do?

I was replacing #6 on this diagram.
