they hold together the selector forks inside the box! If it goes back in OK and you can select all gears then breathe a sigh of relief. If not, then it's gearbox strip down time.
And don't let someone who doesn't know what they are doing work on your car!

At least he didn't pour oil in the timing inspection hole like most people who get it wrong tend to do.
