Exclamation 1992 F-SuperDuty i have a starter/clutch issue

7.3 IDI (Non-Turbo) with ZF5 manual Trans so my starter would not turn over so I removed it after removal I found this in the starter gear. the gear is fine and the truck starts and shifts fine. what could it be, is it a clutch spring.

There is nothing beside it in the pic to give it some scale so not sure how big it is, but surely it must be part of the clutch plate or pressure plate.

Wonder if you still have a dual mass flywheel in there?

Drop that inspection plate and snap a picture. Few 13mm head fasteners last time I dropped mine.
