so a buddy of mine has had this rattling sound coming from his engine for the past few days up until yesterday when he was driving and the car died. we pulled the head today and found this metal piece sitting right on top of the piston. my question is can anyone identify what the metal piece is??? i attached pics of it and have it next to a nickel so you can see the size of it. its gotta be a piece from the head but i want to know for sure what it is before we play guessing games. thanks to anyone that can identify it cause im clueless as to what it is
