Default underbody scrape

so long story short i had to go over this bump which scraped my underbody. i've looked under the car and there are some minor scrapes here and there. the most severe being the front lip (which isn't bad) and the plastics under the engine where the oil filter is. is there anything particularly fragile under there that I should look for damages? I've a part of the exhaust pipe was touched by nothing punctured. more like a light scrape. thanks.

haha actually im sober. i parked at my friends house and when i left, a neighbor blocked my car so i had to go over a lawn and there was a concrete block or something there that i had to go over which caused the scrape. but at least nothing happened. im gonna go into the dealer soon to have the engine rattle TSB done so i'll ask them to do a check for me just incase.
