lock cylinder question

Hi,

If I look at the underside of my Yale cylinder, there are two brass circles (pins?) but in front of them is a much smaller, black, circle.What is that? The reason I ask is I noticed something hanging from my door and it was a small dark rod that was falling out of this hole. What is it? Do I need to replace the cylinder?

TIA
