[Chris Yetman]

I found some M6X30 socket head flat head screwsa in the MSC catalog P/N
67123794 price $25.36 for a box of 100, a lot cheaper for a lesser brand,
$9.98.  I hope this helps somebody.

hey, thanks for the reply Huw. I will try some heat on the surronding area
to open
up the hole. but if i can't, you think I can get away w/o cleaning this
part up? I'm
curious what other listers did during rebuild...

i think the M6x30 spec is right, but it looks like they are countersunk
which might
be difficult to find at the hardware store. Possibly dealer only..
hopefully it doesn't
cost much... but then i really would want to upgrade the metal hardness,
not stick
to the same type. Please let me know if you find a price at the dealer or
elsewhere. Thanks.
