They're pretty weak, but I think they are only supposed to be tourqed to like 9 ft/lbs or so?

if you have a spare body panel bolt try screwing that in there it should be the same pitch, and then you can take it on to lowes (or industrial fastner supply place) and have them match it.
i'll try and find my tap around here somewhere and take a pic

neongoodies.com has an oil pan stud kit. It makes reinstalling the oil pan a breeze.
