Like this...except the Veloce may have had plastic around the bolt, where Centaur and up was metal. https://www.ebay.com/itm/CAMPAGNOLO-...Rpn:rk:25:pf:0

I have 4 cranksets with these bolts.
Yeah, I initially started to use the allen head crank arm bolts from the square taper Record cranks I have since that would have obviated the need for the cover caps (I had already determined the threading problem with the cap on the drive side). Unfortunately, it seems that the Record cranks have a larger diameter hole surrounding the crank bolt because at a certain point the allen crank bolt began removing the threads from the crank arm. At that point I backed it out and switched to the NR bolts.
