Front cover bolts placement

[DougsfastZ]

I just replaced my timing chain and forgot which bolts goes in which holes in the front cover. Can anyone help me figure out which bolts go where?

Thanks,

I can't remember bolt-for-bolt, but you'll find that each one sticks out of the back of the cover by roughly the same amount (~3/4") when properly placed. Put them all through the cover [with it off the car], and see how they poke through.

Also, the cover bolts all have a heavy knurl behind the shoulder, whereas the water pump bolts just have the shoulder without a knurl.
