3rd Gen Exploded View Diagrams; Exist?

So I bought a few parts off Ebay to enhance the engine bays interior. One such part was the coolant recovery tank. While removing the stubborn black push rivets that retain the tank, they flew off like a bullet and disappeared on me. I can't find them nor find the part number, I assume they are discontinued. I have the tank temporarily suspended with speaker wire, ugly but it works for now.

I called my local GM dealer, they said to bring the tank in but they told me it will be a costly bag of parts and it could be a variety of sizes they say. I just want 2 little rivets . The local pick & pull says they don't have any 3rd Gen vehicles anymore, just 4th Gens lol. Just my luck I guess.

So I ask you the question, do we have a sticky made for illustrated diagrams for the 3rd Gen yet?

GM Parts Direct site is outrageous on shipping fees btw.

Every shop I've worked for has nearly eleventy billion of these plastic push pins in stock, in hundreds of different styles and designs. Just use a drill bit to determine the size of the whole, and go to the local dealer's (doesn't matter Chevy, Volkswagen, Honda, etc they all have them) parts counter and tell them what you need. They will have several trays for you to pick through. Should be dirt cheap.
