8 3/4 rear end confusion

I was able to get the button with the pin through it back into the hole and all I did was slightly swipe the magnet sideways and I stuck a conjunction of extensions through the axle housing up until I hit the button and while holding the button in place with the extensions, I pulled back on the magnet. I assume the passenger side button was in place because the axle went in easy, Now, it does seem like than pin may have snapped. Is it a big deal if I just leave it like that? However much of the pin came out with the driver's side button went back into place. Thank you all for your help throughout this and I hope everyone has a happy Easter :)

Do not assume the passenger side button is in place, you need to check. It could just be sitting in the bottom of the housing, which will mean you won’t be able to adjust the end play on the axles.
