i was looking at a used crate to buy and something didn't just look right for some reason. i thought the "GM" on the bolts in the pan looked odd and wondered it they weren't in the right spot.

anyone have a crate they can look at and tell me the exact spot the bolts are supposed to be? or could snap a pic?

i know there are aftermarket bolts around but thought they were pretty obvious. this engine is a few years old and the bolts are aged, so hard to tell by the look, just didnt seem in the correct spot (or my heads's playing tricks on me)
thanks

thats interesting stuff, thanks
still didnt just say where.
i thought i recalled the bolts being in the second from front holes, these are in the front holes.

the head bolts should be the second bolt from the front both sides
the oil pan bolts should be the very front
the intake bolts should be second ones back both sides
the timing cover are not the top 2 but the next 2 down
you can email me pictures and I will help you decide but if the seal bolt for the heads is in the very front hole no need to look --it is wrong
