Alternator bolt?

I have had a look in the usual places, but cant seem to find a replacement bolt for mounting my alternator? Its the one thats about 5" long that mounts alternator to engine - 1600Diesel. It sheared a couple of years ago and i fixed it with just a "normal" bolt, but its not a great fit (slightly too thin) and the alternator has a slight vibration.
Anyone any pointers?
Thanks in advance

Is this the one at the top thru the "hinge" the alternator rotates around?
I think mine went the other day, heard a slight crack as I was tightening up the alt belt. (also 1.6TD)

Can't find it in a google search, anyone got any links?
Also, I need to replace the bottom bolt, near the sump, the one that holds the bottom of the bracket you adjust the alternator on.
Any ideas
