The number for the genuine bolts is 900 074 015 02. I bought a set from Pelican a while back, they may still be available. According to the parts list, they are M6x30. You could probably pick up a passivated bolt from a local source and not have to wait the the three weeks delivery from the US. Being out here in the boonies, it's not so easy for me as it's about the same wait if I have to order from interstate.

A good procedure in aluminum blocks where bolts have been removed is to run a thread chaser (thread tap) of proper size with wd-40 to clean them and avoid seizing or re-thread problems. If thread lock is to be used later, a thorough cleaning with carb cleaner is needed. If your new bolts are longer, you could spin a nut on them and use a fine grinder to shorten them to the proper length and then spin the nut off and fine dress the end with a fine tooth file. This is a field process where you can't get the parts you need in a timely fashion.
