Default Timing Cover Bolt

I bought my 850 used and the timing cover was stowed in the trunk. I'd like to put it back on, does anyone know the dimensions of the bolt? Thanks!

Steve, M7 or 7 x 1 metric thread is the thread size. The shoulder on the bolt is 10 mm in diameter and 33 mm long. The shoulder on the bolt allows it to be tightened fully without crushing the plastic timing cover.

Thanks trektech. I didn't realize it was a shoulder bolt, looks like I'll have to get it from the dealer if it's still available

Go to a junkyard. I think it's a 10mm.
