idk when i pulled gasket off i didnt notice anything that looked lik it anywhere an nothing else fell the whole time i had the manifold off and moving it all aroound compared to that piece which fell almost instantly as soon as i unbolted an lifted the manifold up, im starting to think someone dropped it from anothrt place too i just dont know the engine well enough yet to figure out from where, hopefully sooner rather than later ill know.
