Ok, so I've finally everything together to get my VVT head project in gear ![Party Kitty](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/birthday[1].gif)
So I'm doing inventory on my parts, cleaning everything, checking replacement o-rings, etc and I realize something is missing...
THIS FRICKIN BOLT![vash](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/vash.gif)

I'm guessing this is the banjo type bolt that screws into the block and provides oil pass through for the VVT system. I'm also guessing this is threaded for that miserable 1/8" BSPT female hole in my block, thus making it nearly impossible to locate outside of Mazda.
Arlington/Rosenthal does not show it on their site as far as I can tell, so I'm kinda stuck.
Also, are the copper gaskets in the above image the same? (ZL09-10-333)
Alternately, if someone has one still bolted to an explodificated engine, id be happy to purchase it from you.
Thanks all

KICK ***! Thanks tons Andrew! I was glad to help at the T25, hopefully I can come back this year and wrench on something other than Emilio's truck
I also need to call you about a shortblock one of these days, but all in due time.
Rosenthal lists the block banjo washers, but not the bolt. With the PN, the googlemachine has provided many sources. I need to get off my *** and sign up with Mazdaspeed Motorsports Development, I'm guessing that's where you found the PNs so quickly?

The one directly below the "10-333" in yellow on the above image?
I can get you micrometer accurate external dimensions on it, but I don't have a metric thread pitch gauge nor do I have a thread mic anymore.
