This seems pretty darn weird. I am wondering about corrupt indexes ---
can you find the indicated key in either table if you set
enable_indexscan and enable_bitmapscan to 0?
Also, this is a long shot, but does visit by any chance have a cascading
deletion self-reference?

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
match
