bolt size?

I just picked up an 80 that has been sitting for roughly 10+ yrs or so.

i was tyring to take off the water outlet to get to the thermostat. the two bolts were completely rusted and snapped while taking them out.

can anyone get me the dimensions of the 2 bolts that hold the water outlet down?

M8 X 1.25, assuming you could get the remaining bolt tips out of the water pump housing.
