You don't need to at all. But you can if you want. They're all standard metric sizes. There really aren't that many bolts and nuts used on the engine, and most are either M8 or M6. If you bring your old hardware to a fastener supply, they can easily provide you with new...

Icemark

orchard supply in the bay area normally has all the metric bolts you could need

Just get a wirebush for a drill. Put the drill in a vice on and clean them. That or spray paint them.

You can get stainless fasteners at any local fastener store. No point ordering them from anywhere.
