Default Found these parts in my oilpan????

Can anyone tell me what these are and where they are from? I dropped the oil pan on my 1996 stock 4bt inline pump cummins and these were there. The one piece is a complete snap ring thats been stretched. Please help.
Thanks
Chad

I don't that is why I said tear it down. That is the only true way you are going to know where they are from IMO.

From what I can tell the turbo must have gone.... Looks like these are parts from the bushing/bearings in turbo.

Not sure how the snap rings made it through the drain tube.

Its not KDp. I took the front cover off and pin is still there. It appears I'm going to dodge the bullet and its just old turbo remanants. Motor ran fine when I tested it. Hopefully this is old material.

The bottom drain tube is fairly large, larger than the snap ring at least. I do not reconize the cast pieces but must be something from the exhaust section of the turbo. I found a turbo reubild kit and that snap ring is part of it. The bronze bearing in the kit is also part of the metal I found.
