I've been staring at my factory service manual for hours now and can't seem to find the torque specs for these bolts and this nut anywhere. Hoping somebody can help me out.

Hate to revive an old thread but it seems a fitting addition to a resolved thread on torque specs. The FSM calls for sealant on the lower BOLT on the bracket but does not specify other than a rough sketch. Could we get verification that it is the bottom one and that it is the only bolt/fastener that requires sealant? It looks as though it could be the middle bolt, however. Screenshot for reference.

By the looks of the screenshot you’ve shared, it would appear to only be the one bolt indicated by the arrow.

However, I’ve noted in threads of old that both lower bolts should use sealant. May have been a case of, “It’s better to have sealant and not need it than need sealant and not have it.” See second picture here.
 
On a 2g only the middle bolt requires the use of a thread sealant as the FSM states. The 2g has 3 bolts and one stud. The center bolt is the one.

Picture for reference. It was junkyard block with no head attached which why you see the rust.
