I somehow most the nut that goes in the alternator and the parts manual doesnt show this. I tried the many local hardware stores.
Does anyone know the part number for this nut or has one they are willing to part with, please let me know so I can purchase one from a dealer or you.

Why. Do you think there is a nut there?

The long bolt that passes through the alternator body is RF71-18-W20

Live close up of my car. There indeed may be a nut there.

May the nut comes with the bolt as a set.

Maybe it is a common enough nut that they assume you'd have a suitable one kicking around.
