The lower 10mm (and the upper right 8mm) are both studs that
go through the water pump and front cover to the block.
They are usually completely rusted into the block and an attempt
to remove them can be a total disaster.
With them left in place, the front cover has to come
STRAIGHT off.
Be careful,
Hope this helps,
