On the rear oil seal housing on a TR6, anyone know if there's a special bolt to go along with the copper washer?

I just noticed Bill Williams in his "how to restore TR6/250" says that there's a special bolt to go with the copper washer. But TRF and Moss both list the same bolt for all seven locations in that rear oil seal housing.

I'm assuming it's a non-issue, but would be a heckuva lot easier to change right now than when I put the transmission back on soon...

Thanks!

I just re-did mine and, AISTR, the bolts were all the same. Look that cover over carefully while you have it off as, being alloy, make sure nothing has been over-tightened and cracked the cover.

It's a 5/16" UNF (24) bolt, the same as the other six.
