As embarassing as it is, I have to say I have no idea what I did, or how it should be handled. Here goes...

Was going over the coach, looking for leaks etc... and say a small silver bold on the right side of the alternator (look at the engine from the back), It looked like a very small amount of oil was on the bold, so I decided to see if it needed tightening. Have it 1 little tighten and the head of the bold popped off, leaving the bolt in the hole. I started the engine to see of anything was leaking out after I snapped the head off. All dry... soooo.....

I guess my questions are:

What is that bolt for?
How do I get it out and replace it?
Is that something that I can do myself?
ANY info someone wants to give me on this?

THANKS! I have included a couple of pictures of my handywork. :-)
