Default MBSP bolts

Somewhere in this heap are my MBSP bolts. Do they have to be of any particular grade if I have to source them elsewhere?

A pic of one would be nice to help me compare to what I have.

Thank you

These things are soft as cheese. I stripped a few and just ordered new ones.

The torque spec is quite low, so they aren't anything special. I would throw some hex cap screws in and not think twice.
