    Anybody know the size of the center bolt that fastens the timing cover. My dumb nice person forgot to rtv/threadlock it. Now its just a hole leaking oil and maybe causing a vacuum leak.

    Thanks in advance

    For bolts with a 12mm hex head, the bolt thread size is M10x1.25 standard Japan Industrial Standard (J.I.S.).

    For bolts with 10mm hex heads, the thread size is M6x1.0 standard J.I.S.

    Bolts used by Toyota has flanged hex heads.
