Found a bolt not sure where it goes

[StarTech]

Using your image, that is a 5/16 bolt.

The 5/16 that is that long used on the mower is the one at the PTO clutch.
Anti-rotation bolt that keeps the clutch from spinning.

Any idea where this bolt came from. Noticed it in the back yard after mowing and assume it came off my mower but haven’t noticed anything missing. I have a 2021 bad boy maverick

Its a belt guide for eng pully

Also look under the machine by the engine pulley and idlers. The nut on the bolt is a lock nut. So two nuts get tightened against each other with metal between. May be a threaded hole that it screws into.

Deck hanger bolt ?

not to worry, whatever the most expensive section is you can almost bet that's where it goes, time will tell you for certain...

If you take something apart and put it back together enough times, eventually you will have two of them.

I do not see anything in the diagram that looks like this bolt. What number of the part you are referring to?

Looks like it may be some kind of belt guide.

My thoughts also. Check your mower deck. You’ll see a empty hole
