So I went to pick n pull and unfortunately the last bolt broke off, that goes through the water pump to the timing cover. [Mad] This is the second time that it happens to me. Is it me or these bolts are fuckin weak or commonly broken? I used pb blaster and tried to play with it back n fourth.

they rust over time, its not common to say, ori stuff is what 20 30 years old now? and half teh guys installing stuff now have no experience with the great google guiding them. so what ever it is is gona get worse lol, i got bolts though, text if you need them or one.
