Topic: Ok, Am I missing a clip here?

[Kris]

I know that there are clips in this motor that are half moon shape.  They seem to locate and hold in place the shaft the clutch is on(3 on that shaft) and another I think where the sproket is if I remember right.

My question is, is there supposed to be one in the crank shaft, ignition side, by the seal behind the point system.  It has a little slot that the seal sits in and looks like there could be one of those half moon things there behind it to hold it in place.  I cant find one anywhere and I have been VERY careful to remove each part and place it where I know where it is.

Tell me that I have not lost the clip.  Attached is a pic, thx.

What threw me off was there was two lips, and the seal filled one.
