Cps uses two bolts not one. If you have the other one just get a replacement.

Whip out your arm with three elbows.......

They are allen head as well, use an allen socket on the one closest to the trans dipstick tube.

That's out of the 96 parts manual. I googled the bolt to and found that same info. Could be wrong (I thought they were 1/2) but I did the best I could without actually pulling my bolts.
