Pieces under valve covers
By 65 fe - 03/03/2004 6:32:45 PM; IP 69.1.47.6
I took my valve covers off to replace the gaskets. I was checking everything out, and I saw some pieces laying next to a valve spring. They were broken in two, but were round, and looked to be about 1" in diameter. I am new to fords, so I have no idea what this is. Also could this cause a ticking sound in the valvetrain? Hope someone out there can help.

Thanks
