Small part in fluid
I was removing the fluid from a t-5 WC I just purchased and found the attached part in the fluid. I've never torn down a T-5 so I'm not sure what this part is. I searched this forum and looked through the exploded view of the transmission in the repair guide but could not find anything.
The transmission is a craigslist special so all I know about the operation is "it ran great before I removed it". Once I removed the top cover, the gears didn't look chewed up.
Planning on rebuilding it but just didn't know if this was an oman of things to come.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Re: Small part in fluid
The guy I bought it from must have tried to take the bell housing off with the torx bit and broke his bit. I bought the trans with the bell housing still attached.
Thanks for the help
