[SOLVED] I think I'm being paranoid

Got a new cpu and the paste on the stock fan had very small bits of debris in it. I got the bits out that I could with metal tweezers. I can't find my own paste or I'd reapply myself. The contact with the copper (?) fan plate and my tweezers hasn't done anything that could harm my cpu right? The paste is 99% intact still.

Its entirely fine.
Ideally, you would want new paste. Realistically, no reason to worry.
