Broken Bolt on Air Intake Hose A2760940597

Woops. Broke this captive bolt, snapped it right off with a hand ratchet because of my hoss strength overtorqued it.... It would not surprise anyone that I have no touch around a golf green either. Just ham fisted and bad. No finesse.

That being said... where do we get the bolt? I see the whole part for sale and it normally includes it. The intake hose really firmly seals to its O-ring and flange... but I'd still like the fastener.

Does anyone know where to find such things? Merc parts websites don't really have a P/N for it, just the whole hose.



It's an eTorx E10 head. Dunno the rest of the fastener specs, was hoping someone around here just knew where to find Merc fasteners.
