   Rob, it looks like the levelwind line guide is popped out of it's slot. The slot is in the top frame post. It should just pop back in with a little push...but if it wont...just loosen the top post and turn it a little. Reinsert the line guide and make sure it moves freely in the slot before tightening back down. Reel looks great! 8)

That reel is fantastic, haven't seen one!  Now Bill is a super guy and won't let me pay fir beer, but he is misguided here... clearly that 109 belongs over here with its brother... ;D
