if thats the case, just reuse the old bolt and washer. Tighten it in fully by hand then a good half turn is normally plenty. Just judge by hand

What size are the bolts? I would of thought if M8 it'd be 22nm and if M10 about 30ish

i cant be bothered to scroll up again, but i beleive tom has said, tighten it up, hand tight, then half a turn again... that would be spot on...and around 28-30Nm anyway.

you need 3.5L of either 15-40 or 10-40 oil plus a filter, a new washer for the drain sump and you will need a sump key and a oil filter wrench
Remember to recycle the used oil and don't dump in in a drain ;)
