Default WTF Are these bolts?

Just like the picture shows. Are theses TTY bolts? I don't want to undo them if they are. Do they go into the water jacket or oily galley?

Those are the side bolts for the main caps.

X2, the mains have a 6 bolt design. 4 bolts the traditional way and 2 from the sides.

CORRECT the lsx engines are 6 bolt mains... Just make sure they are tight, pretty much additional strength to the bottom end..

Good to know, I won't be touching them then! I was going to take them out to paint the motor but won't be doing that now. They'll be taped off instead Thanks again guys.
