Default little pieces of dried rtv in bottom of fuel cell

I replaced the aircraft fuel filler with a much more agreeable screw on cap type filler on the fuel cell in my '63 Lemans. As I did this I knocked off some of the dried rtv that was on the inside of the tank and it is now on the bottom of the tank at the sump where the Holley Blue Max pump pulls fuel from. There is no filter between the tank and the pump. Do I need to drain the tank or will the pump just pull those pieces through it without hurting itself? There ARE filters between the pump and the carburetors.
