    Missing screw?

    2B745827

    Can anyone tell me what screw I’m missing in that hole? It’s threaded and near the steering area on the motor.

    any chance anyone has a part number?

    Make sure it's not down inside the hole.

    Thanks Don, which end does the set screw go in on? Looks like it can go on either side
