The head of one of the fuel rail mounting bolts that holds the rail to the intake manifold broke off leaving the bolt inside the manifold. I don't want to pull any of the other bolts (since I don't have to) in case they are seized as well. I am trying to find the correct replacement bolt or at least the size so I can have a new one ready to go in after I extract the old one. I have searched all over online and tried finding diagrams so I could get a part number to get the size, but I cannot find anything.

I believe its 6mm x 1.0 pitch and 16mm long. Wrench size should be 10mm.

Thank you, guys for the quick reply! I’ll pick one up, but I think it’s smaller than a 6mm and it only as an 8mm head. No worries though, I’ll try to pull another bolt and use my gauge.
