I don't see the driver (4 pronged part that engages the cross-shaped clutch) rattling - held snugly by the cone. It would not HAVE to be a pawl spring, just seems to make sense from what you describe. No sense guessing further. Just overhaul, reassemble and adjust properly and you should have no problems.
