Default TPS Bolt

Alright I need some help here. I have been searching and I read through the parts list in the sticky. I need a bolt for my TPS sensor being that I only have one right now. I cant for the life of me find a part number or at the least what size the bolt it is. I have multiple boxes of the random replacement bolts that the chain auto parts stores sell and no luck.

Right now I am down to taking the only bolt holding the sensor on and trying to match it at a parts/hardware store. If someone knows the size it would make it a lot easier to replace. Being that I don't live close to a parts store or hardware store.

Thanks

gave it to a buddy that was about to make a cross country trip. My bird is a garage car in the winter so no need for the bolt at the time.

Just for future reference I used the M4x7.0 general replacement bolt from an auto parts store. Two dollars isn't to bad of an investment for the piece of mind knowing I have the dang TPS bolted on with both screws.
