Looking for an Opinion: 2008 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax

I own a 2008 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax. I was changing the fuel filter and broke one of the plastic T's that connect an injector to the low pressure fuel line. I didn't realise I had done this until I saw the leak and had a chance to find it. The truck was started 5 or 6 times while I tried to locate the leak and I rinsed the fuel off the engine block with a garden hose each time for safety. Each start was less than a minute and probably closer to 15 or 20 seconds.

Question: Should I be concerned with the water that could have made it's way into the broken T or having started the truck a couple times with 1 fuel injector not pulling fuel? If so, is there something I should be asking a mechanic to do to rectify the issue?

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read/comment. It's greatly appreciated.
