I recently had service done on my 2014 Passat TDI Sel. Service performed was replacement of camshaft seals, sprockets bolts, camshaft pulley bolts, timing belt, tensioner, rollers, water pump, coolant, and valve cover gasket. This additional service was performed after my 100,000 mile service and found that there was an oil leak which needed attention, so I took care of it. Now that all service is done...I have found a random nut laying on the bottom engine cover (shown in pictures). Does anyone know what this nut belongs with? I did some research and it looks like the one used in the timing belt assembly but unsure. Is this something I need to worry about? Thank you for your help.

Picture of nuts in the timing belt assembly from a service video. You can see these look very similar but think the one I found is much smaller than these
