NO IT IS NOT FINE TO RIDE IT.

1) The one-way is now shedding little metal pieces every time the crankshaft turns

2) If your 52 tooth gear is currently re-useable it won't be for long

Save your engine, replace the one way ASAP and use a telescoping magnet down the oil sump hole in the left case opening to find as much of the broken one-way spring, roller bearing and cage material that I GUARANTEE is in there, just waiting to be sucked up into your gears or oil pump.

Fix it now, or fix a lot more later.

Good Luck!
