The only thing that should be in that gap is the gasket.  You will find a pressed steel ring that goes under the heads of the bolts, AFAIK it stops big bits of mud getting in, it should just fit inside the brake disk hub.

Other than that, I don't know off hand.

Thanks, yeh, on the bag it comes in they call it a mud sheild, however for some reason i was calling it a locking ring, i questioned it, cos thinking it was a locking ring, i wondered why mine weren't tabbed over as in a locking tab....

Thanks all....

Problem solved!!
