Bought a metric assortment from my local parts store. Virtually all hardware in my engine bay had some measure of corrosion prior to rebuild. Toss all the corroded junk - it's only going to spread. I know some people will have it cleaned and re-coated but I'd rather have new zinc. Far less fuss and does the job.
