Default Thermostat Housing Assembly Torque Spec

What are the torque specs for the thermostat housing assembly on a 2004 S40 with the 2.4i engine. Thank you

This thing? It's showing 10nm which converts to 88.5 inch/pounds (NOT foot/pounds )

That is the correct image but I think the 10nm are for the bolts that hold the thermostat housing in place. I need the nm for the three bolts that hold the entire assembly to the engine block. Last night I used the torque wrench to remove the bolts and I am estimating it took 10 to 15nm. Thank you for the help

Not sure about those three but when in doubt here are the general torque values from VIDA which they suggest should be used when nothing is specifically stated in the install instructions:
M5: 5nm
M6: 10nm
M7: 17nm
M8:24nm
M10: 50nm
M12: 80nm
M14: 130nm
