Mitsubishi SVHS VCR model HSU61, came in with tape jammed in it. Found 
that the cam-lifter assembly was seized by that black grease, so I 
cleaned that all up ok. Found 2 things rattling around in the unit. One 
was a piece of hinge from the cassette door and the other is a small 
white nylon piece which I can't find where it broke off from. Infact, I 
have a scrap Mits VCR with similar mechanism and I can't find anything 
like it on there either. The nylon is the same color as the parts in the 
VCR mech. so I am not suspecting it is a foreign object.

The VCR seems to work fine without it. Have tried play, record, rew, 
eject, etc. and everything seems to work but I'd prefer to find out 
where this piece fits. I looked at the cam lifter, brakes, cassette 
basket (altough I have not removed the basket), etc. but no sign of 
where this belongs.
