Will,
I think those are the two "kinda flat" rather large headed screws that go on
after the timing chain cover is installed. THey are different because they
screw into the aluminum block seal #81. THat is also why they have slotted
heads (so you won't tend to strip them out). The size (here is where I fall flat
on my face) is the same as the other "bolts" that hold on the timing cover. At
least that's MHO. Check this out and let me know if I am right.
