1997 Corolla Speed Sensor

While replacing the speed sensor, the speedometer driven gear sub assembly fell through the hole and went into the transmission. I tried using a magnetic flexible pick up tool and could not find it or get anything to click.

I drove the car for 10 minutes and 0 issues. My guess it fell into the transmission pan and it’s sitting there.

Should i worry or will it be okay.
