What is the correct bolt size for the differential cover?

I know I will need some washers with that. I am not home right now and I know I could check my books at home.

Can someone confirm it's 7/16"-14 (5/8" hex) bolts

I got my differential yesterday and the original mechanic that worked on my differential installed some bolts that were too long. Also, there were no gaskets or silicon on my differential cover.

No wonder that it leaked...

Recommended torque is 50 ft/lbs ?
