ran before I purchased it, when i got home notice the starter spinning, but it wasnt spinnig the engine. I took the starter off and made sure the it was connected to the gear and chain and made sure that the starter itself was spinning. Both where fine but I still cant get this engine to spin. I took off the cover and drain the oil only to find loose pieces, an handle that looks like a mini handle with a splin, a small spring... i should post a link for pictures of what I found

So where can I get a replacement starter clutch and what could have caused it to fail? What about installation? Any help is deeply appreciated...
