CA Power steering due to adjustment bolt FALLING OFF!!!!!

As i was driving, the power steering stopped working managed to get home.

in the engine bay, I not only found my belt came off but also the adjustment pulley!

don't know exactly what the adjustment nut/pulley is called but I've attached a picture from the web. The one on the left within the circled area is missing, with just the bare thread remaining.

Here is the picture of my engine bay:


I don't have a parts manual. I did find this on Atkins rotary.

I'd appreciate if anyone you confirm this is the right part.

just for your information, I have not touched the belts around the engine since I bought the car from the prior owner. Has this happened to anyone else before?

You can get the OEM part from Ray Crowe as well at the standard club discount rate. Plus you won't have to be home to sign for the part since Atkins ships everything signature required...

Gracer - forgot to ask where you go to feed your track appetite, as I see you are in the Bay Area as well. I'm tidying up the car and making it reliable before I consider any track events, but would be fun to be more involved in the RX7 Bay Area community for group gatherings or drives.

Cheers!
