That's a crazy run on sentence. Try using more commas/periods...lol. What exactly are you looking for? A loose nut? A schematic?

Try using a magnet to search for the nut.

Like quadmaniac said, it is very hard for us to understand what you are saying, if you can, try to be more descriptive and use more words. I understand that English is probably not your primary language, but it is very hard to get exactly what you are saying, but I think I get it well enough, so here goes.

It sounds like you have lost your valve adjustment jam nut, it also sounds like you have looked in all the right places to try and find it. I would double check and make sure it isn't stuck to the magneting stator flywheel. If you can't find it, you could either just replace the nut with a new one, or take the motor apart and try to find the old one. Keep in mind, that is a hardened nut and could damage the internals of your engine or transmission.
