That was probably a tool used to tighten the head bolts. Must of fell in. Never seen something like that in an L engine. The oil pan bolts are longer than others. The pan is supposed to have an L shapped washer that has like 6 holes for longer bolts.
My spot is A&G auto parts. I don't go to any chains anymore unless I really need too. This "mom and pop" store will get any part the same day from warehouses around the area. Always will hook me up with a lower price than the competition. And carry cheap and top notch parts. Depends on what you want to put on your car.

Sucks that its only one....
^ the corolla only has like 100 Hp. So you would have to beef it up? What if you running sr20 or kade? I dont think the corolla diff will handle it without extra moneys...
The volvo sounds like its is LSD stock and just weld on some perches and go....
pretty much. Or you can just call them and give them the dimensions. Maybe they can supply you with the right shit. What i did notice is that the bottom sleeves can be used for the top! But they have to be cut and only enough for one side....
The same! Fucket bastards.... I know because I got a 720 bolt when I converted my suspension to ball joint. I had to cut and burn my old bushing for the sleeves.... Well for the upper bushings...
