I have tons of these. Your best bet is to replace them with allen head fasteners.You will never have to fight a stripped out phillips head again! If you want to go back with the original bolts I have a motor I just started tearing down and all the bolts are good and healthy. I think there is actually 3 different length on the valve cover bolts. Measure (in inches please if possible)and I can send you some.

If I goof up and dont reply to this thread feel free to PM/email me.

Your local hardware store should have some replacements. However I would do like Shiny suggested, and replace with Allen head bolts. Your local hardware store should have them as well.
