Default 1977 steering column assembly

Hi guys, I hope you can help me with this. I was disassembling my steering column and this little thing jumped out and now I don’t know where to put it. I believe it was somewhere from the wiper switch which is unique for 1977.

if any of you know where to put this part you would make my Easter pretty amazing

Just a guess, part of the spring retainer that holds the key warning buzzer contacts in.
The link provided shows a later GM Tilt column:
