Now that you have the screw out, determine if it caused any do damaged. The
experts can comment there. The last time I've been inside a 33 was  over 40
years ago. Looks the side to be the same fastener as the others.

Ah the fun of finding where it should be.

On a side note, that's some serious looking gummed up oil, dirt, etc you
have there.
