why bother with a kit. Being that the(our) small 10 bolt is of ancient application,the cover bolts have not been converted to metric,but are still standard 5/16-18 fasteners.
I just use stainless steel hex head bolts for a never-rust condition. You don't need high-grade high-strenght for just a cover. measure/determine the length you need and buy. I use ANSI SS (small OD) flatwashers under the bolt head.

The main reason I want to just buy a kit is so that I know it definitely works with the rear. It's a T/A Cover.

that kit contains cover bolts that are 5/16-18x 3/4. I know they'll work fine for that OEM stamped steel cover. The TA aluminum cover is quite a bit thicker in the bolt area. be cautious that the thicker aluminum cover will use up more of the bolt for just pass-thru and less will be available for thread engagement in the housing.
