They usually sit around where the cams are and hide..or if your unlucky can drop down the cam chain tunnel in which case you will need to remove the clutch and have a look as they can sit down the back of the clutch.

Suzuki dont sell them so you either find the one thats popped and glue it back in or get a secondhand head and remove one carefully to use. A good car motor factors will sell them as they are similar to what are fitted to some cars.
