I do it all the time. Usually not left "in action" like that....but put somewhere for "safe keeping" or "convenient" so that it will be close the next time I need it.

I've also found a few tools. My favorite being a super long set of needle nose pliers found in my 80Z28 about a year after a trip to a transmission shop for work on a 700R4 swap.......was wedged in the rad support and I found it when detailing the engine bay..
