Nope, I let the motor sit overnight until it was cold. I didn't want to chance snapping a bit or tap and hearing my turbo for one last time. I figured if something did happen, I still could disassemble everything to get the pieces out.

I used a telescoping pen magnet to fish out the filings as I went. Thepen magnet fit right into the hole.
