11a) Periodic arms check favoured, welcomed by washington, bah! (9)
I have the answer but cannot settle on the forth letter as being 'E' or 'I' ?
I get the defintion and word play for the rest of the clue but cannot get the wordplay for 'pen' or 'pin'.
Is there a 'quietly' missing before 'favoured' in the clue which would tip me towards 'I' ? or is the word 'check' doing double duty ?

explanation appreciated - thank you.

Thank you K .. I just couldn't see past 'aw' being the relevant possibility for bah with the capital abbreviation.
Must be trying to catch up with too many crosswords post xmas.
I would have jumped with 'in' for favoured but I am not happy unless I know why ! cheers
