Lets play: Name This Bolt!

So... I bought this engine case used and it came with various bolts but can't for the life of me figure out what these are for. Anybody know?

There are 8 of them. It all came from a shop so possibly they are for some other MFG.

Hey there:

That bolt is for the chain ramps, my friend.

Let me know how I can help. Just re-sealed one of these 78 3.0L engines.
