Dropped a bolt in a fuel injection port...
Hey guys, first post and not exactly sure it should be placed here or in the Monte Carlo section but the title says it all. I was mounting a bracket after swapping out my intake manifold and the bolt slipped off inside one of the fuel injection ports. 
I'm not sure how bad this is...we tried lifting the valve covers to look for it but it wasn't there so I'm not sure where it leads. Also Idk how bad it is to leave it or if I need to dig deeper in the engine..
I scoured the web and this forum last night and decided to register and post. Please help if you can, thanks!

So I was able to get some more light down inside the lower intake manifold and spotted the bolt. I magnetized a screwdriver and fished it out.
Now I am having issues with the fuel rail and injector assembly, the fuel injectors are not seating down far enough in the injector ports.
