well thats what i'am thinking do you think it will come out with oil changes? had the oil changed just before I tore it apart also the connection on the ipr is facing towards the front of the engine should I twist it to the back or is it ok facing the front? looks like it will be in the way of the intake and again many thanks to all you guys I can't tell you how much I have learned here.

Thanks cheezit thats what I needed to know if I can rotate it with out hurting anything it would hit the intake the way it is now. could'nt have done this job with out the help of the forum and all the great info on here. Hope I don't find the ball the hard way hopefully it is in the pan and stays there or comes out during oil changes.
