Default Guess the bolts!

I know this is a shot in the dark but can never hurt right!?

Well I have finished putting everything back together on my engine tranny rebuild but I have these few bolts left over and cant for life of me figure out where they go or what they are for.

So please if you can tell me where!

Not sure about 2 and 4, but 3 looks like a drain plug bolt, all the others are mounting bolts of some sort.

lol, what a game!

i dont know for sure on any of these, but there are some clues.

#1: this looks quite small, and it has a large washer on it, it looks like it hold something flimsy down, like sheetmetal or plastic.

#7: both of these have thread sealer on them, so i would assume they go into an open ended hole, plus they have a stud and nut on the end, so something mounts on top of them, i would look at the water pump and other places on the block

#8: this one is a body style bolt, it will go into a "nut-cert" or a threaded clip, most likely to hold down a clamp or light duty bracket

its hard to tell when you cant see the sizes

My Granpapi always said if you have extra bolts, you did it right.
