    D2a 4.0 V8- what's this bolt?

    hi,

    does anyone know what this bolt is for (in the red circle)? I found it loose the other day, but nothing leaking. No mention of it in RAVE

    Thanks

    On the D2 that I wrecked one of the engine oil cooler pipes went in there. The other pipe went in the side of the cover above the oil filter mount. So, if your plug fell out it could get messy...
