Distributor Shaft
#2
#4
I'm not that familiar with Y-blocks; is (was) the clip below an opening in the block, like on SBF's, and should have kept the shaft down in the OP? I'd assume it's in the oil pan now... not likely a problem. It may come out with an oil change, maybe not.
The only concern I'd have with the OP shaft is if it's too long, and is bottoming in the hex drive, making it stick. Is it made specifically for a Y-block?

The clip is suppose to be below the bottom distributor mounting hole to keep the shaft from pulling out of the OP.
