got it
Ok, I went to autozone and bought a m6-1.05x25mm hex head screw. Looks to be the same size but the thread pattern is different. Snugged it right up!
Unfortunetely it still leaked! Not the bolts fault though. I've reinstalled this pump 2 times and both times got a leak out of it. This time I put gasket maker all over the gasket and mated it to the engine. Crossing my fingers it works tonight. Giving it the 24hr dry time for sure. I'm starting to forget how the car even drives
