L&G F1443 KD piece of metal between drum and gasket

[valimar]

Hi All, this is my first post so please have some indulgence.
Since today I start to hear some metal noise by centrifuging and stop the machine. By turning the drum with the hand, I can hear some metal noise between drum and the space of the outer fibber house. By pulling a bit of the gasket and looking inside is not possible to detect anything. It must be a very little screw or something heavy because by shaking the drum it moves to the lower part.
Some ideas how to solve the problem would be appreciated!

could be a bra wire they are quite common

sometimes you can find the tail still stuck out of one of the holes in the drum

if that fails you have to take hoses off at the bottom and try and find it

can be tricky
