Without the aid of the case book -
First of all - we have an "unwritten rule" - that if the mouth piece or chin strap are not properly in place - DURING the down - we 'assume' it was knocked out, and we simply remind the player to keep it in. In your case - since the referee did see him commit the foul - and it was during the run by the offense (R) - it would be penalized by the all but one principle - 5 yard penalty.
Let me know what you think.
