I was installing a set of HKS cams in my SR and dropped the large washer that goes on the exhaust cam sprocket bolt down in the oil pump housing.. I looked all around the area of the Timing chain and also probed the area with a magnet and nothing. I'm sure it fell down the right side of the oil pump housing. I hope it fell into the oil pan area, or on top of the baffle that is down there. What are the chances of that happening? If not, how much work is involved in removing the oil pump? Has this happen to anybody else, or just me?....*LOL*Thanks.....
