Anyone know where this has come from?

As title, it hit the floor as I removed cambelt covers on the mk2.5 1.6tdci focus.

Can't find where it came from and everything works fine still...any ideas?

Socket for scale.

Wouldn’t be an old cover bolt from a previous owner of the car going to do the belt and giving up after snapping the head off it? (Never seen a belt being done so no idea what the cover bolts look like ...... but I will tomorrow!)

Good idea but the cover bolts are a lot shorter on this.  I bought it on 46k/6 years old so I doubt anyone would've been there before tbh, all the plastic wiring clips were all still intact as well.  As far as I can tell it had only had oil changes, tyres and a warranty battery before I got it.  

It may not even have been from the covers area, that's just when I heard it drop and saw it on the floor under the crank pulley.

That's looks like the right hand engine mount stud,  but it's a bit small for a Focus

Ah yeah, again a good idea but not that either.  Those studs take an 18mm nut on the Mk2 focus so considerably larger than this one.
