Missing part on Power brake booster?

Hi there..

I have a question about my brake booster.
I have a 1987 Camaro that I have newly stripped the engine bay.

That included the brake booster wich I have also washed and everything.
Now I think I am missing a peace...Should there be any piston on the brake booster?

I mean in the center where it should push the brake pump?

I do not have the piston any more. Mayby it have disappeared when washing the brake booster. Is it possible to get a new pistor or do I have to buy a new power brake booster?

The location I am talking about is in the center where this "star" look alike mark on the power brake booster.

yea, there is a piston piece that goes there, usually dont see them seperate, might have to try to find another junk car and rod the part.

just noticed your in Norway, not sure how many 3rd gens are laying around, but the 4th gen ones will work too

Okay...Thanks a lot for the help. You don't see many 3rd gen's around here in Norway that's for sure...So a Junk car is not an option for me actually.
I guess I just have to buy a new brake booster then, even if the old one worked perfectly, but I guess that's life sometimes..
