I've ordered a new bolt, nut & bushings for this, so at least I will be sure the right bit is going back on. The bolt I've fitted for now is like for like on the one that's in the pic (minus the bend & stretched bit).
Guy at Motorworks was amazed the bushings didn't give way before the bolt went the way it did.
