Scott,
   I had the same thing happen with the safety wired bolts on my ES's nose strut.  I just tightened the bolts back up and re-safety wired them.  They hold a piece in place on the inside of the strut that stays stationary as a collar moves back and forth over it.  This is where the shimmy damping takes place.  I had a little bit of fluid seepage out of the bolts, but not a significant amount .  I did get a larger fluid leak about that time out of the bottom of the strut, which I have no way of knowing if it was related.  Due to that leak, I sent my strut back for a rebuild.
