Anyone know the size of the bolts for the Timing Chain Cover/Water Pump used with the Explorer FEAD upgrade?

Thanks!

Don't know if this will help, but I happen to have my water pump off the FEAD (Explorer) and took this photo so I could put the bolts back in the correct holes.

Actually, it does help. Would you mind letting me know the length of each of those bolts?

Thanks!
