Now, anyone help with my early engine block enquiry?

Sorbs,
there is a screw, with a lock nut, on the end of the rocker that bears on the push rod - you use it to adjust the distance between the other end and the valve tip.  If that nut gets loose, it would be possible for the screw to unscrew and fall into the depths of the engine.  But I ...
