I lost a arp washer will pull my heads off. Is there any way to look around in the block from the top side or under the pan. Need info on any location that anyone might have lost there washer? Thank you for your input

Once you get the heads off you can fish it out of the pan with one of the long flexable magnets. When I droped a lifter in the pan I took the cam out and the metal plate the the knock sensors are in (under the intake) if you take that off theres a hole that you can go through on the top of the motor and get down to the pan. It might have just went down the oil return hole in the head and be sitting by the lifters. I droped a keeper down there. Good luck.

If it went into the pan you can use a big speaker magnet and use it to move the washer around in the pan. Remove the oil sensor in the side of the pan and try to fish it up through there. Good luck!

Mine either end up there, or I drop them down into the "black hole" of the K member
