Oil pickup debris

I don't think the oil strainer should have these bits in it :? Now I need to work out what they are parts of.

Is that a bit of clutch cover gasket in the 2nd picture bottom right?

Are they metallic? Magnetic?

If not, likely to be cam chain tensioner or clutch plates…

The item is rigid plastic, black with a very distinctive curve on the face, also has a straight edge in 1 corner, looks like camchain guide to me but which bit?

Crankcase now dismantled & nothing is missing or broken ;)

Signs of impact under crank on No1

Guessing to 'tinny' noise was the extra bit hitting the oil baffle plate under No 2.

So get a few o rings on the way home tomorrow & get putting it back together, hopefully ready for Odd Balls Rally
