Alternator mounting bolt.

Hello!

We recently bought an '84 F-150 1/2 ton 4x4 with the 300 I-6. After we replaced the belts we found that the lower mounting bolt was missing. All we have holding the alternator on is the adjusting bolt. I have tried every source I know of to locate a replacment bolt with no luck. Does anyone know of a part number or the deminsions of the bolt? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for helping a newbie out!

I wonder if that's the alternator bolt I pulled from the rear tire on my Mustang?

I was heading north on I-95 in Georgia, stopped for gas and heard the left rear tire hissing. When I finally found someone to fix it, we pulled a 3/8" X 6" bolt out.
