Default snapped rock rail bolt

Taking off my rails today for a little treatment and one of the body mount bolts snapped in half. All the other 5 were awesome, must have forgotten the anti sieze to that one. Anybody know if the bolt/threaded snap clamp thing is something universal I can find or have a part number? Tried a little google search but nothing.

I did the same when I removed mine to trim. I never bothered to replace it so one side is only held by 4 bolts. The 4 remaining bolts are more then enough but yeah you can likely find at a most hardware stores.
