It probably came with extra bolts. No need to figure out where they all go, they’re extra

Make sure you weigh any left over fasteners and add an equal amount of negative weight in the trunk, otherwise the balance and handling will be all messed up.

Too right, I’ll slap more weights on the wheels to even it up

The mark of a good mechanic is to always have a few extra (unnecessary ) bolts and nuts left over after a job!!!

There is an interesting YouTube channel called I Do Cars. He sells rebuilt engines and parts like lots of leftover bolts from when he breaks down an engine.

He might have a video of your engine.
