Probably nothing to worry about. Metallic Wood boring beetles are fairly common. Most bore into dead wood, and the few that do bore into and feed on live wood usually aren't going to kill the tree. Of course there are invasive species like the emerald ash borer that are a serious problem, and may lead to the extinction of ash trees, but native wood boring beetles aren't significant pests.
