I am not going to say who's motor it was that that happened to but it missed the hole in the windage tray and the crank got it and broke it off. It did no dammage to the motor and we pulled the motor and dropped the pan. It was laying on top of the windage tray. Pulled it out and no problems. EZ money, Buy a pan gasket and yank the motor get it, peace of mind will be worth the trouble. The speaker magnet will not work for SS by the way. I would not leave it in there, it is just not worth it.
