Unless this is TBI, I can't figure how that screw could end up on top of the piston. If it is TBI, I suppose it's possible that it could have worked it's way through the intake, through an open valve, then to the cylinder? Is there any way you can post a picture? And, as I remember, weren't those screws alluminum? Maybe, not.
