Found gasket when cleaning oil screen!
Sup guys, I was doing a oil change on my 2006 ninja 250 and decided to also clean the oil screen. I removed the oil screen and I found a gasket sitting on top of the oil screen. Can someone help me identify it and where does it go? Thanks for any help, I gladly appreciate it.

Mr Atom to the rescue!

WOW! That's an incredible journey for something that big to make it from the head to the filter!
 (And not plug up & cause oil starvation at some point)

Thanks for the friendly welcome and help guys ! No oil is seeping into the spark plug hole. Anyone know the process to reinstall the gasket back to its original location ? Thanks again!

I can't imagine the gasket slipping, its gotta be a spare that someone lost when they took the cams out for some reason, and they just bought a new one.

Well guys, I took the valve cover off and removed the caps and guess what ? Both of the gaskets were there! I guess the one I found during my oil change must have been one that fell into the engine. Better safe than sorry. Thanks for all the help you guys. Now I can sleep soundly at night haha😀
