No, it’s the subframe bracket. One on each side, has the big bolt goes through it and then 2 bolts go in from the side, through the body.

Saloon. Are the bolts not the same on all e30s. It’s the small m8x22, Allen key head, 2 on each side ones

If you have hex headed bolts on your car, then you already have the wrong bolts fitted, not that it matters much.
M8 x 20 ish cap bolts are readily available from many sources. I'd include a washer under the head when fitting them.

That’s what I was confused about, on realoem it says inner hex bolt, when I’ve searched for that, it comes up with different types of bolts from what I’ve got already.
