UK based. This is from a bike from the 1990s on a Shimano brake lever. The other lever is missing this part
I believe it's a pivot bolt, but googling that gives me a lot of results that don't look the same.
Anyone know where I can source a replacement?

Honestly I’m pretty sure you aren’t meant to replace those. You’ll have a much easier time replacing both brake levers with a new matching set.
From memory if its a single integrated brake/shifter unit although in theory a parts breakdown sheet was available they were a non servicable assembly and parts backup didnt exist for them. Many Shimano parts of that era & indeed still today are considered non servicable with replacement being the only option. Deore DX and XT of that era did have some parts availability for the seperate brake and shifters but even then nothing for the combined units.
