That is a hose clamp adjuster. Most likely left behind by a PO when they changed hoses and got rid of the crappy factory hose clamps. I wouldn't worry. If it really had backed itself out and fallen off, you'd be out of coolant.

It looks like part of an old hose clamp, probably long since replaced.

Looks like the screw/plate from a Factory Original hose clamp.

thnaks every one

wasnt to worried

just curions

I would definitely check all your hoses tp confirm none of the clamps are broken/missing. A little bit of work and time to possibly prevent head gaskets or other bigger problems

That was a good game....  Give us another question...
