The Valve cover contains 14 bolts containing 7's I BELIEVE.. The timing belt screw(3) I dont know the numbers of, can you guys tell me, what yours read?

When pulling off my valve cover, all Bolts were 7's except one which read 6. After I put it all back, i was left with three screws that I thought were for the Timing belt cover, but there were all different sizes, can you guys shed some light on this?
 
Those numbers on the heads are not identification numbers. If I remember correctly, they are something to identify either hardness or grade numbers.

The (8) bolts around the outside of the valve cover should have a 25mm long shank.
The (6) bolts around the spark plug well (inside of valve cover) are shorter and should have a 22mm long shank.
The (2) bolts that fasten the timing cover down to the top of the valve cover should have a 16mm long shank.
The (1) bolt for the firewall side of the timing cover should have a 25mm long shank.
