So I usually do oil changes on multiple cars for friends etc, it’s quicker to bang them out all at once.

We grabbed all the tools and oil etc, and drove to a neighbour’s level driveway to work on. Then we jacked up my flatmates car, and drained the oil into the oil pan. Now we need to remove the filter with a specific tool. You can see it just below the blue funnel, with the red and black handle.

My flatmate is telling me he is sure he saw it and brought it with us. I wasn’t entirely trusting him because I know he is likely to make the same mistakes as me. Surely we just misplaced it.

Searched everywhere, can’t find it. Went home, it’s not there either. What the fuck?

Turns out… it was at the bottom of the full oil pan.

I legit reread the post, zoomed back in in the picture making sure I understood, trying to figure out how the tool got into the “oil pan” Thinking you meant the oil pan on the bottom if the engine, not the drain pan.

Haha nooo, not the sump. If it somehow got in there I’d still be up at night wondering where tf it went.
