Replacing the timing belt on my 1994 Montero SR (3.5L 6G74)and discovered that most of the 10mm bolt holes that hold the water pump to the water pump housing are stripped. Looked in ASA and it doesn't show the part number for the housing that the water pump goes into, only the water pump itself. The bigger 14MM bolts that go into the engine block are fine. Would rather be proactive and have the part available because I figure this will be a problem down the road if I ignore it. Is this a part number anybody has and that I order a replacement for or am I going to have to find one in a junk yard?

Another part I discovered a stripped bolt hole on was the power steering pump, I found the part number for it (MB922960) and this was already on my list of things to replace because it seems to leak oil all over that side of the engine anyway.
