Happened to me too. I took a look through the starter hole and then tapped the ring gear back in place with a big hammer and drift. First symptom was the starter not engaging reliably, but I missed that thinking it was a worn Bendix.

Now when the starter acts up I just take out the big hammer.The ring gear needs pinning to the flywheel someday.
