After giving this a second look it's looking like a big bolt with a nut on it was wedged there for along time and just worked it way into the primary.

Yup that's what I see too, that's the rear of the primary.

What bike did that come off of ? Something got wedged in between it and the frame hard and vibration did the rest.
