Well didn't notice the missing orange paint till Denny pointed it out

Haven't took the manifold off yet to start looking for my missing pushrod.

I went for a little cruise on Saturday and then towards the end of the ride I started getting a pretty loud tapping noise, so I drove home and figured I would look into it later. So today I pulled the valve cover off to make sure there were no loose rocker arms or anything and BAM thats what I see, but I had to get to work so I just stuck the valve cover on for now until I get some time to tear into it.

The pushrod is somewhere in the motor ,probably be looking for it this weekend
