If I'm looking at this correctly. It should be list #16325.
You'll probably want to replace #16306A as well.

Thank you sooo much!!

 

^I hope you know you're missing a bolt there!

 

I do :/ and unfortunately theres a broken bolt stuck inside(i recently just got the car and its already like that). Any suggestion what to do with it?

 

Can you see what's left of the actual scew? You may have enough to get some vise grips to bite good.

 

You will need to buy a bolt extractor



I once many, many years ago tried to use a drill on a broken bolt, and let's just say that was the wrong thing to do. I can't stress how wrong

 

I’ll try to check it out later when i get off of work! Thank you!

 

Even those require a hole drilled.

Tips:
Soak the offending bolt with penetrating oil!!! Days in advance!
If nothing protrudes out, i.e. not enough to grab; get a grinder and grind the nub flat. Now center punch it dead smack in the middle.

Install a long stud in an adjacent hole to act as a visual guide. Visual cues of drilling straight are VERY HELPFUL!!!

Drill a pilot hole undersize from your extractor. Now using a left hand bit (they cut while turning counterclockwise) start drilling using your guide. If get lucky, the left hand bit will bite and spin out the broken bolt.

GL!

 

Just be careful when drilling into the bolt. As I mentioned previously, I was trying to remove a broken bolt in a Honda Civic that houses the thermostat. The bolt ended up spinning, penetrating deeper, and the engine would not turn after that. Luckily it was a 1979 Civic I had picked up from a tow yard auction for $300 (to sell), I sold it to a junk yard for $200. I was in my 20's...

 

Ouch! Sounds painful and plausible! If you didn't have bad luck, you'd have no luck at all???

I've been dealt my share of cards. So far so good!

 

I had a broken off header stud bolt in a Z6 head of one of my SOHC motors in my '92 and '95 Civic. What I didn't do correctly was make the surface flat BEFORE I drilled it for the extractor bit. The bit walked a bit and the hole was off-center. Luckily it wasn't too stubborn and it released after a bunch of PB Blaster.

 

You got off really good here. Unfortunately as I remember (it was 1993), I didn't have the correct tools to flatten the broken part out. I got a little inpatient (young people) and drilled to deep, I didn't realize the bolt inside was spinning and I didn't think it would penetrate the engine...hindsight is 20/20
