I have a '77 280z engine in my 240z. Where do the long 8 oil pan bolts go?

Disregard. I am truly having an off day. I tried to use some of my valve cover bolts that I had cleaned with the oil pan bolts. I could not figure out why they kept bottoming out. The slightly longer bolts are used to hold on the tension brackets that go around the rear side of the pan. Pan is on, about to call it a day.

That's easy. They go in the longer holes.
