Default Rocks in Intake

I believe this was discussed before, but can't find the thread... I tend to accumulate lots of small rocks in the side intake. I can only assume that some actually get sucked in. What happens to them? Where do they go?
Do they do damage? Do I need to periodically thread a vacuum hose down the intake to suck out any rocks that accumulate at the bottom?

They sit in that area and in front of the air filter. If they get past your air filter, bye bye engine.

Those little guys won't get thru the air filter, no way. I've found some little guys myself on that edge on the bottom of the intakes. This car makes a great sound when on the throttle; you can hear all that air getting sucked into the side intakes, kinda like the old GT3RS.
