Left over part?

[COMachinist]

I am just about finished with replacing my PM932m PDF oil seals, and bearings in the head stock. One problem is I found this in the box where had the parts so would not loose any. Which I think I have this left over part and don’t have a clue where it goes back. I don’t remember seeing it when I disassembled the head???. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok got it figured out, I realized the quill seamed kind of loose. Took a close look around the head box. Quill guide pin missing, must be it. Yeah it is the quill guide pin. Just not paying attention.
Thanks for looking

Great news CH .

One of our old tricks on the new mechanics was to throw an extra part or two in the mess while they were re-installing assemblies .
