Narrative:
The aircraft was released for service. The mechanic had found the collective bolt did not have a nut on the bolt. It had been looked at several times [and] was missed by several people. The next thing was the chin bubble had exited the aircraft. When looked at; there was no sealant holding the seal in. The instructions ask to do this. The oxygen system line was installed on the wrong valve. The lines were not tagged. If the lines were tagged this would not have happened.
