Model 8 missing pin near safety

I recently purchased this .30 Rem, Model 8 and it is missing a pin above the magazine and below the safety when set to fire. Looking at the schematic, I think it is a trigger pin but I cannot tell. Can you all tell me what it is so I can order a replacement?

Yes it looks like the pin is mossing, not sure what its called but its the pin that goes through the trigger housing.
Should be an easy fix.
In the schematic its part # 18: Hammer pin

Thank you. I have watched disassembly videos and it looked like that pin was driven out to separate the receiver. I'll get one ordered and try it out.
