Remember that if the two positions where the dowels are located have not been converted to studs, they are very susceptible to pulling the threads.  DO NOT over torque them.  Clean all of the oil out of the holes to prevent any hydro lock also. Good luck on your repair.

Remember, we cannot post copywritten pics. The sequence is a cross pattern starting with lower left plate fastener.

Doesn't mean you couldn't hand draw one real quick and take a picture.
