Im thinking In the crank too. It lines up you harmonic balancer.

I was under the impression that the keyway on the crank snout lined up the balancer. I could be wrong. Does the woodruff key go under the crank gear?

Just to clarify, I am talking about the little piece of metal that looks like half of a nickel.

Yes. There is a keyway in both the balancer and the gear, and one in the crank. The key holds all those parts in the correct relation to each other.
