If it does indeed take a shear pin.. then there won't be a key way.
I wonder if there is a slot amchined around the shaft, and this 1/4" screw is used as a 'locater' in case the shear pin breaks.. so that the yoke doesn't fly of f the shaft? ( bad design if so.. however.. i've seen worse designs. .. most good designs use a circlip or e-ring in a groove near the end of the shaft to retain the yoke.. etc.. )
