the difference is that you knew the bolt was there, but the question is: what did you really think was going to happen? the bolt would magically make it through the engine unscathed?

i've seen it before on 2 occasions, the most recent was on a freshly rebuilt engine where multiple hands were rushing to get the engine in and it took several trips around the block before the bolt went into the engine, punched a hole through the rotor, destroyed the housing/rotor/seals and created a smoke machine after that point and hours wasted on the phone trying to walk through diagnosis.

You're missing a letter between the "u" and "knowingly". I'm guessing it was supposed to be an "N" in there. Then your statement would make more sense.

Almost had this happen once or twice, quick motor pull and tear down saved me lots of money not replacing engine parts...
