Help! O-ring in oil sump. How bad is this? 700

While attempting to replace the O ring on the turbo oil return line, I some how managed to cram the O ring into the return hole. I drained the oil and poured more into the hole to try and flush it out, but no luck.

Will the Oring: 1. get chewed up by the oil pump and caught in the filter 2. just stay in the sump or 3. block something and/or go somewhere bad.

I haven't driven the car yet. What remedial steps, if any, do I need to take?

Thanks so much for your help.
