I've counted my dowels about 20 times today, it's definitely missing. Gonna go give it another search in a bit.... Not very hopeful.
If the cams are in then it could not have gone far, just check under the cams, then rotate the engine by hand from the crank. If it went down a plug hole it'll lock the engine. I did an XJR for a customer where a dowel dropped down the bores as I was fitting the cams.... Soul Destroying, I feel ya pain
