P38A 2.5 Diesel engine oil Sump fitting bolts.

Hi,

My first proper post after joining last week. I’ve had a proper google search, Rimmers, Island 4x4 etc and also here on the forum, but I can’t find the answer.

Does any one know either the size or part number for the engine oil sump fitting bolts?

Specifically the shorter length ones that run around the front and along the main sides of the pan? I found one snapped off, sans head. The broken stud came out easily enough. But I don’t want to refit the pan knowing I am a bolt shy.

Thanks,
Tom
