Givi "fisher bolt"

If you got a Givi rack for your SV650 used (perhaps off eBay) and it didn't come with the "fisher bolts", you're kinda pooched. You can't buy them from Givi, the only way to get them is to buy (and I'm not making this up) a whole new rack!

This is dumb. They use that same part on a bunch of different bike racks, they should sell them separately. But they don't.

However, you can make one if you've got the right tooling.

The material is aluminum, it's coated with something hard, it doesn't look like anodizing to me but it might be.

the diagonal cut is 45°
I don't think the exact size of the chamfered edges is important, as long as they're big enough to keep the "fisher bolt" from hitting the rounded inside corners of the rear subframe rail.
