Set-screw fell out of print head- What to do?

Had a print stop with a "crash" message last night.  We resumed printing this morning when we found it.  An hour later we noticed severe warping on one corner, so we aborted the print.  This was printing an equipment cover, basically a box.  There was a set-screw laying in the part, which we determined fell out of the hole indicated by the arrow in the attached photo.

What do we do, in addition to re-inserting the set-screw (obviously)?

What size Allen key does it use?

install the screw gently,   you could distort the thermistor capsule
