iPhone SE: Identification and location of small metal contact part

Hi. I need to identify where this part goes in my iPhone SE. It sprung out whilst I was taking the phone apart to try and repair the motherboard for water damage.

Phone reassembled without it but not working. Might be something else but would like to put it back correctly

Thanks Steve. Good, clear detailed instructions on the link. That’s the part.

Took phone to be repaired today, identified scorch marks on logic board near battery (may have shorted when hit the water). Waiting to find out if phone or photos can be salvaged.

It’s a washer that fits under the motherboard at the top of the phone. It goes under the red circled screw in Step 30 of this guide: iPhone SE Logic Board Replacement
