Default ARP Head Bolts?

This is probably a REALLY retarded question but I want to know before I start my next job on my engine in case I need to buy some but....

How do I tell if I have ARP head bolts on my car or not without taking them off???

If I don't have them, where do I go to buy them because I can't seem to find any that say they are actually for an LT1...am I missing something or just retarded???

The ones that I have seen/installed usually have a washer under the head and some have 12 point heads, big giveaway.
