Geeese..., you'd think someone else would chime in & advise ya., looks like you're stuck with me... >
< <'> :lol:
If memory serves, there's stiffeners at the front-n-rear of the pan.
If so.., there's likely four (maybe more) bolts that are longer than the rest. The longer ones go with the stiffeners.
Some go up into the T-chain cover & likely longer.
As a general rule..., always make note of where bolts came from on disassembly. Many parts have diff. bolt requirements.

You're quite welcome.., glad to help.
I think we set a record as to the number of back-n-forth posts gett'n you thru this project. ^_^ /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
As I said B4, there are quite a few folks viewing your questions so we likely helped a few others do, or at least
think about doing these projects.
By doing this "hands on" project, you'll have learned some techniques you can transfer to other projects if necessary.
Don't be a stranger.., check-in often as you may be able to help others.
Have fun out there..,
Bob

I am almost finished, however I am having trouble getting clearance to install the oil pan. I need to remove this bolt in order to make some room, does this bolt just come right out? I have tried but it won't budge.
That's the track-bar attach point stud & lock nut.., (& that's a pivot point). Maybe wire wheel the
threads.., Buy ya..., it should break loose.

Yep.., that's tricky...!
That's why I glue them to the pan. They need to stay in place or there will be an oil leak.
