Yeah I agree, the manual is vague in that area. I just ordered a whole new bolt set from Brewers to make sure I had the right ones. Hopefully the pictures helped you. Now I am not sure how the bolt pattern/layout changes from the newer/older style covers. I also have the newer ball detent interlock style cover. Not sure about the config of the comb detent interlock covers.
Mine is a 69 tranny and I only have one of the longer shoulder bolts. I checked both shop manual and parts manual and no reference to which hole it goes in. Gonna have to try to take the cover off and hopefully dont rip the gasket. Im a dumbass.....
