Undercarriage bolts missing - part number?

I went under my 2008 BMW X3 E83 the other day and saw this. Looks like that undercarriage panel had 2 bolts on the passenger side fall out

Any idea what the part number is or the long shot - is this expected? Is this common?

Best,
Chris

So take one out the drivers side, measure and buy two for the passenger side.
Whilst you have one bolt out, see if it actually tightens up in the passenger side holes (i.e there may be nothing behind that panel, hence no bolts)

I agree and good call on testing on the opposite side, didn't consider that.

I'll probably also move 1 bolt to be opposite the other so that it's held better until I can procure the other 2 bolts
