    What car is that from? it's not a 20v turbo front pulley it doesn't have enough material on it.

    Was it taken from a different Audi car?

              Two possible scenarios.

              Either bolts were loose, because of being too long, and the thread went to end even the damper was not properly tightened, IOW someone made the bolts out of longer ones that didn't have long enough threaded part.

              Or the damper itself broke internally, and started to vibrate. In this case the rubber inside the damper has ruptured.

              In any case, check the bearings, as most likely You will have axial direction wear marks on them. Replace if so.
