Ok, so, some genius (or MAYBE road vibration...) ended up leaving out 2 bolts on the front of the engine. They're the bolts that you find behind the belt cover on the block, circling the crankshaft - also right next to the oil pan. Two of them aren't there, and one of them looks like it's spewing oil out the front. What the heck?! So, I want to go to the hardware store and replace em, but I don't want to take any others out to match them to, in fear of breaking the seal behind that cover. Anybody got the dimensions for those 2 bolts?

You can't see the exact bolts I'm refering to, they're in the shadow behind the belt...but the ones right next to them are pictured, just for reference.

M6. the shorter bolts that are there (you have them circled in the pic) are M6 x 35mm. there are also two longer bolts that hold the rear timing belt cover on at the corners of the oil pump, they are M6 x 45mm
