Many cars have a resonance chamber for the air intake that is hidden inside the wheel well. It is designed to quiet the noise from the engine when the throttle is open. Make sure you keep all the pieces and insist that the body shop put it all back when the car is repaired, it can be really loud afterward if they don't have it when they do the repair.

A little empty container? Maybe it wasn't empty before the "little accident"?
Open your hood. Find your air filter housing. One side if it goes to your engine, right? I'm sure it's still connected. Does the other side go through a passageway to the little empty container? If yes, and you have an air filter, then it's probably ok.
