I've tried searching everywhere, but can't seem to find this...

I'm in the middle of my tbelt install and have managed to break the bolt holding the crank sprocket on. This thing is on there TIGHT, even with a breaker bar and the starter method it wouldn't budge...tried an air impact (only 250 ft/lbs, but STILL) and a pipe on the end of the breaker bar eventually created a hairline crack in the bolt. OMG Argh!

Anyway, question is: What is the part number for the bolt holding the crank sprocket on? (The one circled in red)

Well my sugestion would be to go back to the impact and keep hammering on it but this time put a wrench on the bolt also and just use the chuck of the impact in the bolt center. This way it will keep from splittintg. When your done if you've destroyed the bolt let me know I probably have 15 or so extras. And by the way, are those the dampener bolts i see busted off in the holes? OMG Oh and not saying you are, but make sure your lossening not tightening..... It could happen!
