That's the check valve and the weight for the eccelerator pump track, the ball goes it first and the weight goes on top of it.
It's purpose of these 2 parts is to keep the track full so you don't get a hesitation when you crack the throttle.
In your picture it's called the check valve, just drop them back in the hole, ball first and the weight on top of it.
