do you think you have like a more closer pic?
Which one do you need? The bolt that is connecting the two pipes? Or the smaller two?

Create a cylender, bevel one face in but on the same plane, then bevel it in again but hollow it out (to effectivly create a tube), now just drag some points in to create the star key. done.

Make a cylender, extrude the top, knife it a bit or weight patch it, freeze and bool the cut-outs.

You have to get a closer view to hundrstand the details and scales of each parts.
Here is a basic shape made with boolean and bevels. |
