I'll bet the pin that holds the float in place slid out and fell. It is held in place by the bowl.

well theres no real open holes and there is a pin. i started the engine and it idals and revs so i think it might have not been important or maybe it was gas when it hit made a noise?!?!

Is your float needle still in there? Could it have been one of the vent hoses?
