Oil pump mounting bolts - size?

Hey all,
I want to make sure I get the proper Gene Berg pressure relief cover. One of the ways they distinguish between oil pumps is 6mm vs 8mm mount bolts. Can anybody with an unassembled Aerovee check for me? They have 13mm heads so I'm guessing 8mm but would appreciate confirmation.

The head size is usually 150% of the bolt size so yours is most likely 8mm

Another question for the group. Do we have 26mm gears or 30mm gears? From what I've read the measurement is the height of the gears, so the diameter is the same. If somebody has a pump that is not installed yet can you measure it for me?

Thanks,
Bryan
