Also if anyone have a complete list of replacement bolts for the oil pan, that would help me out tremendously, i also plan on making a post and uploading pics of the job.

Hit up the folks at 5150autsport as they can help you with rebuild parts etc. If you can afford the time and expense either rebuild your oil pump or just buy a new one. Check out this fellow Floridan's recent work on his M5's ro bearings. He had some other stuff he did along the way. He is a good presenter but the content should not be used as a how to. https://www.youtube.com/@Yes_Way_Jose/videos
