Default stupid bolt

Hi fellas,

I have a t-3 turbo off a volvo and there is a bolt hole on the intake side of the housing. unfortunately, I don't know where the bolt is. Anyone has a spare one? I will post pictures later tonight. It's like 10x.8 pitch I think.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking.

There's a bolt on the intake side of the housing? Which housing? Are you trying to clock the turbo?

You don't know where the bolt it? I thought you just said it was on the intake side of the housing?

Maybe posting pics will help.

Most likely it's the hole for the nipple that goes to the internal wastegate actuator.
You should be able to find a plug at any hardware store.

8x1.25mm is the thread pitch for all T3 compressor cover clamp bolts and exhaust housing clamp bolts as well as o2 housing bolts into the exhaust housing

I included some picture this time. hopefull it helps explain what I need. I already went to the local hardware store and 10x1.25 seems to be too big still. I need something that has smaller pitch.
