What I see is what looks like a disk flower pedal shaped. Does anyone have a pic of the bottom of the hood insert.

    I am thinking that the bolt is intact and that the part that anchors to bolt to the insert is what came apart.

    Thanks in advance

    Yep...not unusual.

    Remove the insert & epoxy it back on.

    OR...if you prefer a more industrial grade approach...

    Just drill it, set it on rubber pads, & through bolt it with some nice shiny stainless "hood jewelery"...
