When the motor is running approx as it ever does before quitting, slap a
stethoscope on such parts as you can readily reach  -  crankcase, but also
other surfaces.  Valve seat fragments rattling around in a cylinder will
make a sound you (or I) have never heard, but it will be obviously odd.
     Absent a steth borrowed from a friendly medico, a big screwdriver in
your ear is far better than nothing.
