I need help finding what this specific bolt is called, or perhaps what it is. I was torquing down an aluminum radiator to my 01 GS300 but the bolt for the bracket snapped off and I don't know where to find it, rather I don't know what it's called, I was planning to JB weld it and let it cure but if you guys can solve it before I ghetto JB it that'd be nice,. Pic related is the nut that broke.
Your best bet is to drill that bad bolt and use a nut on the bottom with a short bolt. If you want to get professional you can tack weld a nut on the bottom like it came OEM and use a small stud with a nut. Just be careful of any wiring running under that upper radiator support if you drill it out as that is a common place to a run wiring loom between the driver side and passenger side.

Probably the best bet, yeah. I can feel a wiring loom half an inch or so from that bolt, I guess I'll head to my mechanic tomorrow and have him drill it out and just use your former suggestion, possibly a tack weld later on but that's just because I like everything being tidy and proper.

The plastic cover goes over the hood release cable. I replaced the cable a while ago and I don't remember any wiring directly under there. The cover pops off easily though so you should double check
