What that doesn't tell you is the thread pitch (I think it's 1.25) and the metric grade of the bolt (I think it's at least a 10.9 if not a 12.9).

So if I'm accurate it would be M10x1.25 at 80mm length, partial threaded 10.9 or 12.9 grade.

can be found, if you have the right tool, with the broken bolt.

If you didn't know the other two are basically the same bolt with only minor differences and depending on where the bolt broke, you may not be able to determine thread pitch, and only experience will tell you steel class.

I believe the bolt in question is a partially threaded bolt and if it's seized where it breaks above the threads, there is no threads to measure pitch.
