Yikes!
Not sure about the piece of plastic but that's probably the least of
your worries right now--check the underside of the car, esp. brake
lines, exhaust system, gas tank, and other things that stick out.  Also
probably the oil pan.  Do you know why it fell off?  Had it been
rattling?

Glad you made it home in one piece!
