strange P0326 question

Service engine light came on today - code P0326 comes up.

Installed a DDM CAI last week and had an issue with a bolt on the cover that would only come half way out on install (from the factory). Tried again today to remove the bolt but the welded nut came loose so I cut the head of the bolt off to prevent rattle. Unfortunately, the bolt head flew off somewhere in the engine compartment and I was unable to find it. Took the rest of the CAI cover off until I am able to replace the nut that come loose.

2 miles into the next drive the SEI light comes on with code P0326.

QUESTION????????
-Missing bolt head lodged somewhere setting off the knock sensor?
-CAI missing cover causing it (don't think so as a lot of CAIs have no cover)
-something else?????
