I was replacing the bank 2 Camshaft position sensor and dropped the bolt. The engine bay apparently ate it so now I’m stuck. Anyone know what the specs are for this small bolt so that I can find a replacement tomorrow morning? My Lexus dealer’s parts department is closed on the weekends. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Making a bit of a guess bolt probably looks like this


M6x1.0mm not sure of length.

That’s it! Thanks a ton! I’ll estimate length based on what I saw taking the old one out. Do you know if there is any possibility of damaging anything if it’s a tad long? Thanks again @Lexus2000 !

I have a similar bolt if not identical length is 16mm (threads only) this bolt won't take more than 10 lb-ft (spec is probably half that) if the bolt is too long bad things can happen like snapping the head off or the sensor rattling around.
