496 hands-on experts? Need some help identifying...
...this bolt that I found in the bilge last night. It's got a 10MM head, and it's not a concave head like on the exhaust. It's 30MM long and has a domed tip as well which looks unique to me.
It is steel/magnetic, with a little bit of black paint sprayed on it.
Thank you very much in advance.

10mm is usually used to hold on a bracket or pump. I would check the top bolt in the idler bracket on the stbd side at the top, around the power steering pump area, (most of those are pretty long though), The bell housing uses 10mm also but may have more black paint on it than what this one shows here. Also the bracket that holds the boost pump and fuel sep filter has 10mm bolts in it also. Might want to check in the altinator bracket too. Looks like they use 10mm too. Last place to look is where the heat exchanger mounts bolt to the front of the head. they bolt the thermostat housing to the cylinder head.
Let us know what you find!
