Just go to ACE or any other hardware and pick some up. They are nothing fancy, just some 3/8 coarse thred( I think), probably 3/4 inch long.

5/16" coarse thread bolts 3/4" long or so. Nothing special. The only special ones are the ones with the 5/8" head on them and the stud. Those are getting very hard to find.

I broke mine off putting a water pump on my money pitt/LX. I thought I was stuck then Bam right on the "help" shelf @ smyth. They have a few odd fasteners like that. I was ready to break out the threaded rod or reach for the welder. The next 2 hours were spent extracting the old ones in the block reaching thru the timing cover:(.
