I was doing some cleaning yesterday in the engine bay and had my coil pack bracket off. While putting it back on and tightening the bolt in the very back something metal fell down into the bottom of the engine bay. I have no idea what it was and wasn't missing any tools. Went for a drive afterwards and when going uphill I heard whatever it was fall out but I never could find it. From this pic can you guys see anything missing? Sounded metal and pretty light, like a clip of some sort. Whatever it was came from somewhere real close to that back bolt. Thanks guys
I see part of the PCV system missing from the rear of the drivers side valve cover. The large grommet on the top next to the rear coil.
The whole PCV system lines probably need to be replaced due to rot caused by all the oil that is sucked through it. I have had to replace three of these over the last couple of years for mine and friends cars.

Don't know year of your or the OP's car, and can't remember the details, but later years had a different PCV system. My 04 just has a plug where his is, only a bit different looking.

I would suggest calling one of the used parts vendors here on the forum and seeing if they have a clip? You may have to get the entire braided fuel line though.

Agree... so perhaps try sourcing from somebody here on FS section parting cars. I'd travel back to the same road first though, now that you're aware of what you are missing.
Can you see anything missing?
