Check out a good mopar parts site. MoparPartsGiant works pretty well for me, find the diagram for the waterpump/timing cover, and it should show which bolt sizes go where.

That's odd.....

I might be tempted to just get another short bolt, and call it a day..... I see there is also a stud in there, and one oddball bolt..... (diagram here.)
