Thanks Steve
Sounds like the studs are hard to come by, if I had known I would not have thrown the studs out when I stripped the axle, doh.

How bad are the old studs?
Without pulling the studs from my axle I'm not sure but they may be unf at the nut end but I would expect them to be unc in the casing.
Better check this.
Various lengths are available via ebay

OK have removed a stud.
Yep 5/16" unf - unc x 2" long. Thread lengths each end approx. 5/8" (16mm)
You should be able to find some manifold studs that size.
Hope that helps.

Hi Old's
The thing is I haven't got them I threw them away when I stripped the axle, my thinking was to buy new.
Been looking on eBay cant seem to find any maybe using the wrong terminology or wording

Not really. To short and are for screwing into a cast iron manifold, the unc section is less than 10mm long.

S'OK.  Smiley
Just check that the unc section is at least 14mm otherwise the risk of pulling the ally threads is a lot higher.
