I don't think that is correct as it is too short and thin metal, I also have other cover springs which do not match this.

Here are my guesses:
1. SPRING: Part 25287-37 (Breather Oil Separator seal ring spring)
2. WASHER: Part 48370-52 (steering head bearing dust shield)

Thoughts?

It's hard to tell the size of the parts,but could they be oil filter related?

Heartily agree about no size reference. At first I thought the spring was wet clutch spring that got tossed in the box by mistake. I find it is good to take hundreds of pictures, as well as segregating parts with baggies and different boxes. It was great that the OP did have a box, so that he can tell he has these extra.

I agree the spring could be the one inside the gearcase breather, that pushes against the generator oil spinner. It might also be from a pushrod cover. Like was said-- put something in the pic for reference, a scale or ruler or coin. Or a pushrod cover.

The washer looks like the counter-shaft first gear washer.

You can see my trick of using 1/4-inch graph paper to indicate the size of parts.

Has the OP checked endplay? Depending on the size, there is also a resemblance to the dry clutch basket thrust washer or backing washer, but I suspect the OP has not torn apart the clutch basket.

Yes, the clutch is torn all apart and it is being installed. I will check on the areas you fellas mentioned. If not correct I will re-post a picture with reference.
