Default Two bolts to the oil pan I forgot where they go?

Here they are in the pics below. They seem to be the same thread size as the two rea bolts on the pan, they are thinner then the other bolts, I just cant for the life of me remember where they go.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Brad

I handle their internet/forum marketing and promotions as a part time gig, my day job is as a special education teacher. I'm a wrench turner in my driveway like many others here. Previuously have completed heads and cam and clutch, differential, torque tube rebuild etc. I just couldn't remember where the last two bolts went, its been two month since I took the old short block apart. This is my first stroker build, the mind tends to go with age.

I just bolted up my Moroso pan and the only two small bolts i used were the two at the rear of the block. They are NOT for the timing cover. Those bolts are just longer same thread pattern, same as the ones mounting hte timing cover to the block. The only thing that they could go to is something to do with the oil filter assembly as my pan did not have one.
