I busted two of the bolts that hold in the oil squirters on a TD block.  Anyone know were to get some?

Tried pulling some from a spare TD block I have, cranks in the way.  Said the hell with it and ordered from the dealer.  3.50ish each---bastards.  Anyone else need some, dealer found some NOS in jersey, 30 of em.

Wrong direction.  They were coming out, after 20 odd years in place.
