Default Water pump/ bolts/ mishap

I recently purchased a 96 Ford with 460 under the hood, about a week ago I lost all power and discovered it was the water pump. Upon tearing it down and replacing it the bolts were not kept in the old pump so I could relocate them to correct location. Does anyone have any info or a picture of the correct locations. I’d greatly appreciate this.

Clearly, you're not talking about an F150.

Clean the bolts (I like to use a wirewheel on a bench grinder), lay them out in good light, and number them for a pic. Then take several pics of the WP, TC, & block showing each hole's depth (the distance the bolt has to reach through the WP to the block or timing cover), with each hole lettered. We should be able to help you match up the numbers to the letters.
