    Don’t know the name but it appears to be threaded on both ends. Not uncommon.

    I can happily turn it into one, but the mods might frown on that.

    May not have been a screw at all, might have been a bolt.

    It is a "U" nut. Also called a spring nut or clip nut. Im assuming that is a broken off machine screw in it?
