L76 doing lifters cam ect maybe more now found in sump any thoughts? Dropped in during timing cover removal or something? Did buy it for fkall but not ideal no play in big end or knock before I took it out like you’d expect if it’s bearing

thats the timing chain tensioner spring metal, change to the early LS2 dog bone style tensioner so it never happens again
Cheers mate first thing me mate who’s a mechanic said too. Thought it looked bit different to big end bearing lol

Pictured what I think is mine and what I’m needing? Is it just the one piece I need?
just looking at it seems to eliminate a lot of issues that stock one will have

yep that's all it is just goes in the middle with two bolts n ur done for life, all they really do is stop the looseness slapping on deceleration not that there is a great deal of that anyway but over time prob stops excess wear on the teeth n chain
