Are you are talking about the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor that goes in to the intake tube from the throttle body to the air cleaner box? Since there are two screws for it and you lost one, take out the other one and go to your local Ace hardware and get a replacement. Easy, Peasy.

Yes GH , lost 1 of the 2 screws on the MAF. I went to my local Home depot, Auto Zone and another auto shop. They did not have the screw, they had similar ones but nothing exact - the length and the spread of it is different going to the parts store of lexus and order it
