I think I've ID that plate..
It looks like the remains of the plate that covers the starter clutch itself.
Putting the new one on today, I noticed that there is a thin metal plate that covers the 3 rollers.
I guess its there to help keep everything from flying apart (under normal use - that is)
Putting the new one on, I cleaned the threads with denatured alcohol and used some red Locktite and I peened the bolts. Hopefully they won't come loose again.
Can't test start it yet.. No Oil in there..
