well then, in case anyone else has this problem
the thing that got yanked out of place is the rubber cover for one of the the rear caliper sliding pins.
BMW part number is 34 21 2 330 312
I finally have a service manual on hand for that bike - but since it needs a new rear tire, and I had to order the part, it's going to the shop (I wasn't feeling really comfortable with messing with the brake caliper). The old rubber cover was kind of put back - the baffle that would be closest to the base of the sliding pin was removed to shove it back in place so it provides some amount of coverage/protection in the meantime.
