Fuel pump mounting question

getting ready to re assemble my motor.
The small stud on the fuel pump is bent.
Do these have a part number?
Just replace with a bolt?
I'm guessing the stud is to make install slightly easier...due to clearance issues?

You can use a bolt no problem or replace the stud either will work. You can find studs at the NAPA store in your local area. The stud make is easier because of the compression on the arm of the pump and holding it in while starting the bolt. this is when a person would like to have three arms.

Thanks...it's always the small parts that hold up an engine build...and seem to cost the most.
