I think the long one is on the spark plug side at the bottom of the leg.

The above are correct; the exposed bolt is a short one. This can be found in the FSM.

Ah yes, thanks guys,

looking more closely at the FSM and I see, the only 'special' bolt is the one with the logo, and so the parts list showing one bolt with a different P/N would be that one.

the parts fische should give you a quantity too, but the different # is your part
