part found in tranny

I pulled the pan off my tranny to drain before dropping the tranny. When I took the pan off, I found a part in it! The part looks like it is white nylon, about 1" round, domed, with an o-ring, and has about an 1/8" diameter by 2" long stem. I don't see anyplace it could have came from. What is it and what does it do? I just lost OD and burnt the fluid all of a sudden. Would this have something to do with it? Could it maybe be fixed without dropping and run?
 
It's put in by the factory, to let someone know when the first time the fluid and filter has been changed. Toss it in the trash.

Mike I think he was hoping that part floating in the pan was the reason he lost OD, but since it has nothing to do with the problem he will be changing the tranny.
Maybe I misunderstood.
