I was changing the oil pan gasket in the t2 motor i just got and found a small screw looks something like an idle screw. The engine had no oil cap when i got i so if could have fallen in some how. The treads on the screw r a little messed up and it has a flat to w/slit for flathead scwerdriver. Does anyone know where this could have come from interally? here r some pic sorry they r blurry.

Oil pump set screw? You don't have FD stationary gears do you?

 

probally is the oil set screw i will pull off front cover and check it out. Can i just put it back in or do i have to disasemble the oil pump? Its an 86 stock 13bt2

 

screw is no good

 

It was the oil pump set screw i dissasembled thr oil pump and there seems to e no damage. I rethreaded the screw and put loctite on it.
