  Those are 6mm X 20 bolts.  The bottom one on the end is actually a
special bolt with the hex head in the middle and threads sticking out
beyond.  It's for bolting the heater pipe to.  A regular bolt will work fine
though.

  One is the glow plug sensor (049 919 501).  The other is the temperature
gauge sender (same number I do believe) or idiot light sender.  (Don't
know the number, dealer or wrecking yard part.)  The big one has two
male spade connectors on it?  That's the A/C overtemp cutout.  Yard or
dealer.

  That's because it is an oil pressure sender!  :)  There are several
different
ones so be specific when getting one, diesel, in the head, etc.

  Radiator fan thermoswitch.  Again there are several and the correct one
depends on what thermostat you have.  Perhaps time to put in a new
thermostat too and be sure/safe?
