Transfer Case Question

I was changing my oil today on the 03, when I noticed that there had been fluid coming out of the transfer case. It was mainly concentrated around a 7/8" plug at the bottom, so I put a wrench to it to tighten it up. When I did that it sheared the plug off and a spring and what looks like a bullet, for lack of a better word, dropped out. I have been to all the auto parts stores around here and no luck. Is this the normal drain plug that I broke? If not what is it?

That is the detent and spring. Dealer only part I would assume.

Thanks for the quick reply. That diagram really helps as well.

So I'm guessing just get the part and put it in and refill with gear fluid and I should be good to go?

The transfer case does not take "gear fluid". The transfer case uses ATF IV fluid.
