Didn't I just read this post the other day? That is most likely the plug put in at the plant that ***. It new. When installed at the factory it is pushed into the pan by the dipstick tube. It hurts nothing and proves the pan has never been removed before.

Yup it's a shipping plug.
The part that "falls" out of C4 is held in place by the filter and is much much smaller.
