Default coolant air bleed pipe bolts and seals

I am going back together with my 95 LT1 corvette. I wanted to replace the bolts and seals for the coolant air bleed pipe. I went to the local dealer and was told I had to order the entire assembly. Does anyone have any info on this?

Thanks
Tom

Are you speaking of the steam tube connecting the heads at the rear of the engine?

If so,

I'm not sure if this PN is still current. GMPartsdirect or ThePartsLadi would know for sure.

I've reused mine several times without a leak.

When I took the heads off, I found that the passenger side damaged. The bolt was stripped and the head was damaged. that is why I need new ones. Does anybody by chance have the part number for the bolt?

94z07fx3, that part number worked great, Thanks.

Thanks
Tom

Have your parts counter guy look up this

gm part number 12552974

That should be the bolts but no picture, sorry.

Be sure to order four of those washers BTW!

Bye the way thanks all for your help. I did order 4 washers but the bolts have been discontinued and can only be ordered with the pipe assembly approx 90.00 or so.

Thanks again
