I think that's a mountain and a molehill. You still have the image in
/boot, config in /boot or in the running kernel, libs in /lib/modules
and the bootloader is intact.

Delete the sources?
- Re-emerge them. 90 seconds.
- Re-compile using existing config. 20 minutes

So deleting the sources for the running kernel is a doh! moment. But no
biggie, and certainly not cause for changing your routine (all in my own
not at all humble opinion, of course)
