Can you provide the exact Make, Model and Kenmore model number? Kenmore model numbers use the format ###.######## with the first three digits of 110 for Whirlpool manufactured machines. Without knowing the model number, I'd have to guess that what you are looking at is a method of keeping drained water from flowing back into the washer, also known as a check valve or a one way valve. .
Go to: SearsPartsDirect.com They show breakout drawings of each sub-assembly that also list the part numbers for ordering. The ball does not seem to be a likely component.

I moved my Kenmore 70 series washer and noticed on the washer pan shavings and grease. Still works fine. What do I need to fix/replace before this turns into a big problem?
