Brickwerks said they didn't have any, so I just ordered some of their high grade M8 bolts. Looks like i might need to shave the head down so it mounts properly. I wasn't sure if that was 100% safe though. Thoughts?

Engine Mount/Chassis Rail Bolt
I managed to break one of these M8 bolts (with a flat head) off this diesel engine mount/chassis rail.

I think they are about 30mm, Toby. I can measure in the morning.
