Message I'm on the path back to putting my engine back together on my rebuild, then I ran into this. I was putting the oil pump on but relized I only had three of the bolts. So I thought I just lost a bolt untill I looked at some of the pics from pulling the engine. Here is the bolt I am concerned with

And here is a pic from me pulling the engine. I had just taken the heads off. I haven't even touched the oil pump yet. It is missing that bolt

After seeing that I looked at other peoples engine's and found 2 engines that were missing the exact same bolt. One was in a write-up on installing something (here on TT.net) the other was on yahoo pics. I was a vocational school for mechanics at the time and photobucket.com is blocked on their computers so I couldn't save them. I got home and couldn't find them, but here is another one I just found

Has anyone else ran into this?
