I have an 1982 air cooled westy and the bolt that screws into the fan shroud and holds the black oil cooler bracket is missing. Does anyone know what size this bolt is? I imagine not having the bracket screwed in puts unwanted stress on the oil cooler seals maybe causing the leak I have. Thank you

I see a bolt that goes into a tab on the bracket that is 8mm x 1.25 pitch 22 mm long. The bracket appears to be two peice and clamps the cooler. Those two bolts are smaller. 6mm x 1.0 pitch 15 mm long. Both should be available at your local hardware store. As a reference, 25.4 mm = 1 inch.
