Help needed, Anyone recognize where this Internally Threaded Bolt belongs?

[SouthernGypsy]

We have a 2018 Cub Cadet Challenger 400 and I found this Internally Threaded Bolt with a 10mm head size laying in the floor of the shop bay here on our ranch where we park the Cub Cadet.

Trying to figure out where it belongs...

Just by the looks, notice the clean and corrosion areas of the tube.  Suggests that the bolt was used with a rubber bushing mount......like a shock of possibly a suspension rubber cushioned A-arm.  My guess is there are  more of them......look for their sisters under there.  If any found, check their torque also so you don't find more down the road.

Yea, was obvious part of it has been somewhere protected from the elements, either inside of a mounting hole, grommet, or a rubber bushing like you mentioned but so far haven't found any holes missing bolts or any bolts that look like it when looking around on the machine.

Looks to me that it is probably either a hood bold or one of the door Rubber mount bolts.
