Bolt Sizes?

I am assembling a 408 motor, and I don't have a lot of the small hardware because it was used on my 434. I need the bolt size for the camshaft bolt and the oil pump bolts. I also need the size for the Woodruff Key.

Can anyone supply this information?

Cam bolt is 3/8 NC x 2 with 1 1/8th threaded. The special washer behind it is .412 I.D. x 1.200 O.D. x .250 thick.
The oil pump bolt is 3/8th NC also and is 1 1/4 long and uses a lockwasher.

Thanks. I'll try to pick up something close tomorrow.

I think that the Woodruff key is 3/16" width. I'll try a couple different sizes.

woodruff keys. A 3/16-inch x 1-3/4-inch key is used at the sprocket and the other, a 1/4-inch x 7/8-inch key is used at the crankshaft damper.

I got a the bolt, washer and woodruff key from Tim Meyer, but my crank only has one woodruff key slot. It's the 3/16 x 1-3/4. That one key picks up the timing chain sprocket and the damper.
I do have a question about that. The woodruff key only goes part way into the sprocket.
