Well it's not the same as having uncle Willie caught in your zipper. I Would just leave it alone.
 
It won't get caught by the crank, it can't. Think about it, it's either moving in the mass of oil as it sloshes around or sitting in the bottom of the pan. Once it settles to the bottom there isn't any force to lift it back up again into the oil and then past it into the crank. There is no possible way for the crank to get ahold of it. It's not like the crank acts as a pump, it just pushes the oil out of it's way.

I got my emergency brake cables mounted. I have the arms in evaporust. I'll take them out tomorrow and pull the wheels to see if I have the rest of the pieces.

What are you going to do for the rest of the night without arms? I hope you don't need to scratch or wipe anything...
 
You guys will be bored with this but I have been fretting the big job of cleaning my loose socket and wrench inventory up for return. The oil they wash them in after chrome plating reacts with the foam organizers in my socket drawers and wrench organizers. It turns to black goo and impossible to get off. I tried brake clean, solvent, thinner, wd 40 and the like and nothing even softened the goo. A customer today grabbed a nasty socket and gave it a ultrasonic bath for 10 min. in a 10% Simple Green solution and the thing looked better than new. Now I am off to the net to order ultrasonic cleaner. I might as well get one big enough for carbs. I might have time after I retire to do some of those. LOL
