can't tell in pic if those are hollow. If not, they are not pieces of PR
The relief pin in oil pump looks similar in size if it is solid. That is held in with a roll pin so quite unlikely that would come out...and there is only one of those in a oil pump

It is solid,It's to small for push rods and those I checked when I did the valve seals. It doesn't have roller rockers, I'm gonna guess the oil pump pin. The other one is smaller than the one pictured. Thanks for all your input

injuneers note on RR end roller pins would be way more likely but you say the 2 pins are different sizes..
If you are not original owner to the motor in the car...who knows WTF got dropped into or left inside motor before you got the car. Good you found it before something went bang or boom....unless that is how you found it.

It would take someone to pull the pin from cam (not easily done at all) and that pin won't just fall out into the motor (timing cover) for it to then migrate down into the pan.....and twice. If it did fall into the motor on opti removal it would make MAJOR noise getting ground up in the timing gear/chain immediately on startup
I see way better odds winning the lottery than that happening
If P.O. had intake off maybe whatever the small metal pin is fell into intake valley from careless P.O.
