Do the water change. I wouldn't risk letting it sit and hoping for the best. It will be easier on the livestock if you dilute what went into the water by doing the WC.

glass is harmless. a drop of red alcohol is harmless. a whole bunch of lead weight bb's not so good. a whole bunch of steel weight bb's no big deal. i would siphon mercury out, if anyone still uses that even.

so, what's the panic? :D

+1 I wouldn't worry about the contents hurting the tank. remove all that you can.
