Random bolt at bottom of tranny pan

I took my tranny pan off earlier and found a random bolt sticking to one of the magnets. It's hard to see but it's on the magnet on the middle of the pan.

I tried looking around and cant figure out where the bolt goes. There is one hole where it will fit in but the bolt is MUCH too long to fit flush in the hole.

It's gotta go somewhere.

Try just uploading it straight from your computer rather than using photobucket or any other picture hosting site. When posting just scroll down a bit and click 'manage attachments'
 
that is a random bolt?? and the leftover 'pink milkshake' gives me the willies! Im really sorry to see this on your 4runner man.

Im over 200k, and all these recent threads about the dreaded pink milkshake are making me nervous. I will be ordering a tranny cooler right now!

What really bums me out is that I bought this 4Runner about two months ago. I thought I had a little time before I had to worry about the pink milkshake.

One of the recent threads is mine. I just figured that I would get a response about this random bolt in a new thread as opposed to posting it in my other thread.
 
Only thing I can think of is something from the valve body...like one of the VB mounting bolts. But it is quite long. Did you look above the VB?

I'll take a look when I drop the pan again. I was racing against the clock yesterday and put the pan up w/o locating the bolt's home.
