Hey all:  Anyone know why these two bolts won't go in?  The seem to bottom out on something soft approx the depth of where whet the timing cover meets the block  the other bolts are fine.  What am I missing?  (HELP!) 

Might be the wrong bolts for the holes.  I think there might three different lengths.

Thanks @Zed Head   Update:  I was able to push the 12mm bolt thru what I believe was gasket sealant.  For the upper 10mm,  I had an extra bolt that I ground to a point. That one pushed right thru the sealant too.  All's well in Seattle again.  Thanks much as always for the support!  JH
