Replacing a lost bolt

I'm trying to find a part number or even the size/length of the bolt that holds down the "Y" pipe. It seems to have gone missing from when my mechanic R&R the engine for the coolant pipe fix a year ago. Funny I didn't notice it then or the last 2 oil changes I have done since. In any case I have looked through the PET and even the service workshop manual with no luck.



No bolt shown in this diagram

It haa a 10mm hex head on it so i think that makes it a m6 and about 20mm length. Take the other bolt out that is forward and slightly to the right side (near the n75 valve) and get one just like that. It has the flanged head so you dont need washers on it. You don't want to have washers here as you will drop them down into the motor never to be found again.

If you are in a pinch I've found quality bolts at tractor supply stores as well.

Thanks all for the help. The fact that there is no hardware shown in the parts diagram, had me google searching to no end.
