While riding the jetski the starter bolts loosened and allowed the starter to come out. I noticed there was no loctite used previously so that would explain why they came loose. I found miscellaneous nuts and bots underneath the engine, but the 2 bolts I found that appear to be the starter bolts are approximately 3/4" long (threaded portion), 3/16" wide. It has a 10mm head. Does this sound like the right bolts for the starter? The reason I ask is they screw into the block just fine, but don't want to tighten up. The threads look in good shape so I am having trouble believing the threads in the block are stripped. The bolt is also made of aluminum or some alloy as a magnet will not stick to it. Here is a picture of the bolt
