First question, so I hope i'm in the right place. I removed the powerhead for a Yamaha 70 and while cleaning the mid section I noticed a screw head, a washer, and a small ball bearing laying in the tray. I have searched the power head and the midsection, but I cannot seem to locate the proper place for these items. I have been looking through the service manual and nothing is standing out either. Any ideas on where these came from?

Thank you

It says I need to have 3 posts to be able to post them, so I will try this as my third....... Or is it 3 posts on 3 different areas?

Alright, I have them uploaded. I took a couple to show the different views of the screw head. I am not certain if that screw head broke off of something or if it is normally this small.. Either way, I can not seem to find anywhere this would go.

Looks like a brass drain screw from carb or T&T unit, it has a cross drilled port for drain or bleeding air out of without taking screw all the way out,that it snapped off at.
The ball looks like a check valve ball, T&T is the only place i can think of right off hand

Thank you. Will check the t&t unit tonight. Already checked the carbs, they have all proper screws in place.

Alright. Talked to the owner and found that the fuel pump had been changed. The old one had a bleeder screw on it. The overall scenerio at this point is that it came from that. There is nothing on this motor or assembly that is missing anything. Thank you for your help.
