That is a problem. I would say you MUST find the lost keeper. Otherwise it can be in the engine, somewhere between the springs and can cause serious damage.
When I did mine, I also lost one and spent one entire DAY searching it unless found it under the car. Yes, it was lots of frustration. And much happiness when found
Great work anyways, and hope you get another 100k miles with fresh seals and gaskets.
