Retainers. And yeah, they're in correctly.

The bearings are the originals that came in the headset; they looked to be fine, I couldn't see any reason to not re-use them.

Also, I assume that the top and bottom races and bearings are equal (they look it), but just in case, I switched the bearings+retainers between top and bottom. Symptoms exactly the same, though.
