It's not an oil jet from the eccentric.
No idea what it is really. I can't think of anything in that area resembling that part other then the setscrew used to hold the setscrew on the oil pump. Without a size reference though it's hard to tell.

that little thing gose into the bottom of the oil pump. It holds the bottom peace of the oil pump steady so it does not spin or something. I found that same thing in my oil pan too. You need to put it pack in and make sure it is lined up with the grove it goes into and use some lock tight to make sure it dosent come off again. If you dont you will lose oil pressure. I think that is wy I lost alittle oil pressure in my car. Aaron is right!
