The incident happened today while I was spraying 2009 Toyota Corolla Altis 1.8J engine bay rubber and plastic parts with silicon spray can and car was idling. While spraying the spray can straw at nozzle got caught in serpentine belt when I was trying to cover some hoses behind the radiator. Out of 12.5cm long straw I have recovered 10.5cm and rest is missing. The straw has burnt rubber marks and has bent out of shape at multiple places. Now the question is did I damage the engine? Do I need to replace the belt? What is the missing straw part went inside alternator or some other part of engine ; will it be harmful?
