Are you sure it's from the pony motor? Does it have the oil hole through it? and mushroom head?
No direct route for that to happen.

Hey Bob, I agree with OM ... I also have a D6-8U and recently tore the pony motor to rebuild ... I see no way the dowel from pony main bearing could make its way into the main pan. They both share the coolent but not oil. I have pictures of the tear down on another forum post if you're interested. Scoop

Thanks - Been twenty years since I rebuilt my pony - but his discovery in the bucket looks like the dowel from memory.
