Get a bit of card stencil your waterpump cover put each bolt into the holes in place of we're they should be (in size) and cut the new ones and replace.. Make sure you tap the holes out in the head softly but it's best too as your using new bolts.. Did this myself and had no issues.. It has to be done though as some of the bolts had been washed away on the inside and the threads were gone.. Softly softly dose it..

If you have a screw fix near by they sell stainless 6mm bolts, fit and forget.
