Yikes, bolt identification please

[Green67Alpine]

Series V have engine and transmission out to replace throw out bearing, this bolt escaped my labeling system and I can't seem to figure out where it goes, any help will be much appreciated.

It goes in the rear of the engine to center the bellhousing.

Thank you for the reply, although there's 3 threaded holes on the rear of the engine that the bolt fits in, on the bell housing that bolt doesn't pass through any hole. It seems the smooth shoulder is a bit larger than the shoulder next to the head. I've cleaned all the housing pass through holes but to no avail. I'm sure I'm missing something but...

It is a tight fit intended for alignment of the engine and trans.

Tom,

This hole in the block.

Try putting the bolt in the freezer for a while, till it is chilled to freezer temperature.

If that doesn't work, you might need to warm the hole with a heat gun before inserting the cold bolt.

Hope this helps,

Just to make sure you notice because I forgot to rotate the picture, the block in the picture is UPSIDE DOWN.

That hole is on the right side of the block, not the starter side.

Yep, figured you just leaned over and took that picture cause when I did that it looked just like your photo. Tried the freezer tip and it fit just fine.
Thanks again, Tom j
