Not what you want to find when you pop the cover...

This was under the valve cover of the CL360 motor that was running just hours before.

Notice the end of the tensioner is broke off. Too bad too as it's the updated style. The other tensioner was only about 1" long when I pulled it out. the rest must be in the crank case. Explains the crack in the chain tunnel though.

Is that a piece of steel from guide curved up alongside sprocket?

That's my assumption so far. I've pulled the top end off completely and haven't found anything else broken or missing. I need to separate the case and see what's floating around in the bottom. This is an "extra" motor at this point... but it was one I had considered using for the big bore build. Glad I found this now before I sold it or sent it to some guy in Florida . In fact, it's the one running in my exhaust test video in the 250 thread in this subforum.

Cam cover arrived this afternoon, I wasn't expecting that, just the rockers out of it ;D
Guess it will have to get 'worked on'
