Good video of a fellow Canadian mopar lovin repair shop.
Spoiler alert...skip to 15:30 for unusual discovery. Never seen that before.

An auction car.....hmmm, could it be sabotage?

Or is it sabataage?

In high school a kid I knew dumped a hand full of 1/4'' nuts down the carb of his brother's 68 340 Dart.

Could of been a pissed off wife.

Ya never know what you get at auction. Buyer beware.

Sure a nice looking RT though.

that sucks

Looks like it might be 'an old ground (?) or intake (?) or carb (?) bolt'
but getting past the intake valve would be weird, but it could happen

maybe someone dropped it accidentally down there in the intake port
when the intake was off & they didn't even know it ???
until they tried to start it
or maybe when installing the intake or carb or something ????

fucked up the head & piston, rod & at least that cylinders bearing
probably too

I fast forwarded to the strange find part, didn't watch the rest

ouch

Looks like a carburetor mounting bolt that someone dropped down the intake...and either didn't notice, or has a field full of Fu&ks that don't grow too well.

It's a 3/8" bolt, which would be more like the size of an intake manifold bolt.
