I think you are talking about the bypass which treads
into the front cover, which you can see/ remove once
the oil pan is off, there is a spring holding up a plunger / piston.
If you were running this motor with a broken spring in there
I think it would have caused really low oil pressure and maybe
even some damage to the motor...
just order one from mazda if you don't have a extra
on hand.

best thing to do is explain where it is to the parts guy,
mazda calls it a "Control valve spring"
