Not exactly sure about the material make up of exhaust bolts..
BUT here's a quick idea..(at 3:40 in the morning..heh,heh!)
Go to your Auto parts store and get some generic Exhaust Studs..with bolts and washers.
Since the parts are meant for high heat they should work just fine.

Any bolt that fits in the hole will work. A smear of plumbers silicone works fine on exhaust gaskets too iv found. And a bit on the bolts acts like a low strength threadlocker. Although high-temp RTV is better if you have it but neither is necessary.
