The two bolts needed are M8 X 1.24 mm. The taper is keyed, so watch for the key, you do not want to drop in down the timing cover.

Yeah, make sure the key is on the top side. I made the mistake of lining up the timing marks, and dropped the key down into the timing case.
I did use it as a learning experience though, and pulled the cover, took pics of the KDP, etc.
I had to modify a couple of 5/16-18 bolts when I did mine because I did not have metrics handy. Just ran a metric die down the bolts and they ain't pretty but they work.
