Default Bellhousing and TC bolts

My 2000 LS1 is 60 miles away and sitting in a cradle of tires. I need to remove the torque converter and bolt it to an engine stand.

Can someone please tell me what size bolts and threads are used through the engine stand into the bellhousing, and what size wrench or socket works best to take off the torque converter.

Also is it best to use copper or aluminum based antisieze on the aluminum block?

Is this the wrong place to ask about if a bolt is english or metric, and what size it is?

I'm not sure between the two you have listed.

I use the nickel based anti seize. My current jar is by permetex. I've not had any trouble so far. Every time I change spark plugs this is what I put on the threads.
