Header install question

I'm in the middle of a mac header install. well i got the passenger side header on...kinda...When i went to remove the back bolt on the manifold. there wasn't one there! just the bolt for the egr tube! so i'm thinking... whatever it's coming out now anyway. i get the header up in there, and try to put a bolt in the back, and it won't go in! it's almost like the hole is too small! should i just not worry about it? how could it just be missing?

Re: Header install question

Is there a bolt broke off in the hole?

Re: Header install question

Ok, how about this. There are two holes behind this exhaust port. Could I drill a hole in the header, using the gasket as a template, and drill another hole there to use?
