Well, I took the valve cover off and found this mess.

Scared me a bit because I thought it might be catastrophic and that I'd need a new engine.
It all worked out though. I fished out all of the broken pieces, drilled, tapped and installed the heli-coil. I put it all back together and the bike is running great.
Now I just have to get the air/fuel mix right and seal the exhausts.
