    I can't describe this piece other than it makes the 8 cell battery fit without a space visible on my X61. X61 owners should know what I'm talking about, hopefully. I can take pictures if you guys are really stumped.

    Long story short, I'm missing this piece and I was wondering if anyone could direct me to where I can find a replacement without having to buy a brand new battery.

    I happen to know exactly what piece you're talking about ;)
    It's called the battery spacer, FRU 42W3050. You can try to find it on ebay or at sparepartswarehouse.com
