Help needed identifying sheared bolt and from where

Hope to get some guidance from this forum.

2001 Boxter Base - 52k Miles.

Washed the car today and was backing her into the garage. Heard some clunk noise but continued to park.

Got out and in my driveway I found a sheared bolt (see pics) which must have been why I heard the clunk noise.

The bolt looks to be sheared off. The nut fits a 18mm socket and the bolt fits a T40 socket.

From where I found it i think it must have come from the front right location of the vehicle.

I only had time for a quick look and nothing looked out of sorts.

Plan to put her up on jacks and move the steering to see if I can hear anything plus perform visual inspection of the suspension components.

Appreciate any guidance, etc. i were this type of bolt may have come from.

Thanks.
