Is that steel or aluminum/aluminum alloy? The color and way it's pitted look more like aluminum to me. If it is, that might help narrow down the location.

This is also a pretty unique nut design. I can't find the exact thing anywhere online.
The basic arrangement is called a free spinning washer nut, but that does not account for the three internal slits. I think they may be a self-locking mechanism, but I am not sure.
