Let's play, "What's that in my oil pan?"

My overall concern is making sure when I put the motor back together that there isn't something missing a c-clip somewhere. I was looking over the oil level sender and trying to see if it came off it but I didn't see anywhere that it would fit.

im stumped on this one, i was thinking rockers too but when i did the trunion upgrade i dont remember any clips like that. just a little present from gm haha. hows the new motor, any specs? mine broke over 600 and maxed out the pump so i went with a bigger pulley.

I went to a shop in horsham, where Joel works at. Non sponsor so I better not list it but I think you know who. Yea sounds good to me, wish this weather would finally clear up. The whole project took a lot longer then expected but it was worth it.

There is nothing on a Ls motor or anything in engine bay that has the style/size clip. I do know from experience that those clips tend to snag onto rags & towels.
So only guess I have, is that you had your oil changed, & mechanic wiped excess oil that he dribbled onto filler neck or valve cover with rag & that clip was hanging on rag & fell in.
