Hi guys,
I replaced the timing chain and, when reinstalling the camshaft bridge, I noticed this small metal ball on the floor. I’m not sure if it came from there or not. I disassembled the camshaft bridge again, but I still can’t tell. In the picture, I marked in green that nothing seems to be missing from that area. In red, on the inside, there is a hole/channel that leads towards the camshaft. The ball I found is smaller than the two visible ones in the picture, and it fits into that channel. Should that channel have one ball, two balls, or none at all?
Could it be the check valve, which is integrated in the camshaft, and I should buy a new one?
