I just finished a build, didnt see anything like that in my motor. Rounded ends don't match for a Rocker arm shaft either.

Looks like part of the old 3 piece clutch rod assembly they used to use on the early evo's , don't know anything about the twinkies as I've never had one apart as yet.

This crossed my mind.
Had to look but to me it looks just like a rod out of my dial indicator set.

This isn't my set but it's close

Ha. Ran out to look at my dial indicator. Nope. Engine will be running by this weekend. Hopefully. Waiting on a few gaskets. I'll let everyone know.

200 miles from home it'll hit you like a ton of bricks. That feeling when...

As maticulous as I have been and spent extra money on the best parts I'm sure it's going to cause a catastrophic failure. Can't believe this is happening.
Any chance it was already in the box before you started filling it with parts? Leftover from another project maybe

Sure looks like the one in my set. Shucks Good luck to ya'

Years ago I put a Olds 455 engine together. Had it in the car a ready to fire it up. Went to get some tool's put up and one of my co-workers had put a half of a main bearing on my bench.
He owned up to it pretty quick. I laughed but it wasn't easy
