Default Water Pump bolt and Flex plate install questions

I know broad area.

Can someone tell me where the torx bolt goes on the water pump. A pic if someone has one would be great.

Does it matter how the flex plate goes back on? Its there any kinda timing associated with it? I marked it but after cleaning the engine I doubt the marks are gonna be there

this is just a feeble minded guess, but i think it was around top center. check the lengths of the bolt vs the thickness of the casting. if the lengths are the same, then it won't really matter.

no timing associated with flex plate.

Thanks. I had pc look at his and he said it wasn't any of the top ones. They are all the same size. I just wanna make sure its not different so the belt or something don't hit it

I looked yesterday but all of mine are regular head bolts that I can tell from standing outside the engine bay. Haha, just be happy you got your pic's of the engine / trans bracket mounts you wanted after I hit my head crawling back out from underneath of the truck.
