Default Loose bolt

Hi Guys

Just want to ask what is that engine part in the picture(with a circle)? found a loose bolt last saturday when replacing a intercooler hose. What is the function of that part? Appreciate for your response. Thanks

It's a bell housing bolt,holds the gear box to the engine. More importantly it's connected to an earth strap. Make sure you tighten it ASAP, if it comes loose it may cause sparks and other bad things

It is a bell housing gearbox bolt, but it is also on of your starter motor bolts.
