Need help with frame head. One of the 4 bolts that hold the front beam is completely loose and on the end of the bolt is the threaded insert which prevents me from taking out my front beam. I took the bug to a shop and the owner told me he could fix this by welding the same insert back to the frame head. My question is where can I find and insert for my frame head? I can't seem to find anything here to help me out. any input is appreciated. Thx.

It's just a nut. They need to repair the damaged metal but adding a plate and then just weld a nut in the correct location.
