What frame is it? I have a canyon Nerve (old type, 2011) which is dented and going in the bin, but if a bolt from it works I can strip it out... I don't recall there being a teardropped bolt though but I don't really pay attention to things until they brake.

Probaby a Canyon specific part, Trek did something similar on their full sus bikes, and I filed a nut with the correct thread to temporarily replace one that had gone missing.

piece of steel, drill and tap to correct thread and then file to shape.
