That hole is a Timing Chain tensioner service hole. When you install a new tensioner you have to take that bolt out and pull a pin to release the tensioner piston.

Just tighten it a bit and leave it as is. I highly doubt that your oil level being low is related with that bolt if anything check other places for oil leak. Or you could have VTECd allot and didn't replenish the fossil fuels .
