the motor was not in the car its in my garage and i saw it fall down into the camshaft area but the valves were closed what are the odds it fell into the oil pan.

if it fell into the valves area, u still should have pistons between the head and oilpan, it wouldnt be in the oil pan maybe in the cylinder but if u said the valves are closed it should still be somewhere in the head
