Default Need help identifying 1985 (US S3) intake mount bolt

Folks -

I'm re-assembling the intake on my '85 (S3) and I've forgotten what bolts up to the rearmost intake runner on the car. I'm sure it's simple but for the life of me can't remember what it is. Pictures follow. If anyone can tell me what this bolt is supposed to secure I'd be very happy


Long view of intake showing bolt location.

Holds a test port black round should also have a clamp that attaches to the intake.

this is the DTC sensor connector. if you don't see the connector you can follow the lead from the sensor to find it. it is the sensor mounted in the top of the bell housing just behind the CPS.

Thanks to both of you. It's probably sitting somewhere on top of the throttle intake. I'll use a flashlight . I didn't want to seal it up until I figured out what it was for.

Best Regards,

Found it with your assistance. As I suspected, it had fallen in front of the throttle. I should have had the presence of mind to take pictures before rather than after...
