PS2 Slim component identification

I was installing a Modbo into a PS2 slim and the diagram had me pull 3.3v from this component but the fit was extremely tight to where I couldn't even get my iron between it and the others above it. So I desoldered it because it looked like a manufacturing defect as it was further up from the top pad than the bottom. Well I dropped it on my carpet of course and I can't find it, so I figured the board was dead as it wouldn't turn on, I bridged the pads with a wire in desperation and it turns on now and works fine.

I guess what I'm asking is if this is a fire hazard and where I can find another. It didn't look like any capacitor or resistor I've seen before, mine was a solid black cube with two pads on the bottom of it only, this image looks different but it's the same board.

 

Did it have a number on it? If it did, then it might have been a SMD resistor.

 

It didn't have anything on it, just a solid black vertical rectangle. I was holding it with my tweezers trying to figure out what it was and it shot right across the room and I haven't seen it since

Here's an artist's rendition of it. It looks like a capacitor but I'm unsure of the rating as there wasn't anything written on it or polarity and the leads were on the bottom which I haven't seen before. Guess I'll have to try to find a schematic.

 

It was probably a PTC fuse or ferrite bead. Neither would create a fire hazard. Just enjoy your system and don't worry about it

 

If it was black, it most likely was a ferrite bead or inductor. I'm leaning towards a bead.
In that case, your direct connection is fine. You're missing the filtering the the bead provided but the circuit commonly works nevertheless.
An inductor is pretty unlikely with that description (but it would also work normally).

And you would recognize a common resistor, right?
