So the blasphemous machine shop that had my motor the first time managed to lose my bolts for the oil pump and rear main seal retainer. If anyone happens to know the sizes of these bolts, I will be forever grateful. It would save me from making 500 trips to the fastener store.

the rear seal bracket is 10mm bolts I believe and the oil pump has 14mm bolts, but you should check with the fsm just to be on the safe side.

Good luck,

rear seal bolts are m6x1.0 (12mm long IIRC) Oil pump bolts are M8x1.25 in a couple of different lengths

Yeah thanks. I managed to figure it out. Oil pump bolts are M7x1.0 just so you know.
