My thoughts too.. based on scale, that spring has got to be ~2" long at least...

Which ones are the exhaust seals again black or brown?

I hope that is just a valve seal spring. That is not too bad to fix.

Yeah, that's what it is. Patriot does use GM ones. The brown ones I think, for the exhaust but on the intake too.

Valve seals aren't a big deal though.
