Tiny grub screw found on print bed?

I just noticed this screw on my print bed when I went to remove the print. It's about 4mm long and 3mm in diameter.  I have to assume it's from the extruder assembly, but I can't seem to find where. Anyone know where this might have come from?

Thermistor screw?

I try to make safe suggestions,You should understand the context and ensure you are happy that they are safe before attempting to apply my suggestions, what you do, is YOUR responsibility. Location Halifax UK

Ah, yup good call. Top right was the one that came out, must have not been tightened enough from the factory.

I know this is a over a year late, I really appreciate this post however old it is, because I have jus found a grub screw on my print bed, and its the same "Top right was the one that came out". Save me some time searching.

Thanks you.
