torque specs generally
Unless I am mistaken, the Haynes manual I have doesn't seem to offer torque specs on many components.
Sure this has been asked before, but are there any recommendations on an easily-referenced source of torque specs, even including diagrams?

Note that, to a first order of magnitude, torque is determined by fastener size (and material). So you can use standard charts if you can't find a manufacturer recommendation.. https://www.fastenal.com/content/mer...ce%20Guide.pdf

Nothing found in the online manual, and these universal charts are a bit involved in that I would have to guess the grade and I am not familiar with the K constant, while there is no distinction for aluminum in the metric table.
An example being I stripped one of the water pump / timing cover studs when over tightening the jam bolts for its removal.
I will have new studs and would like to know the proper torque spec for these studs into the aluminum timing cover.
This is because a stripped timing cover is much more difficult to replace and have a feeling the spec may be fairly low, like maybe around 6 ft-lb.
Where can this spec be found? Are there any resources with charts according to common parts? Why does the Haynes manual not give these amid the instructions, or are they in an elusive appendix?
Otherwise, would anti-seize or grease be better for these studs being tight yet removable in the future?

the studs in the timing cover for mounting the water pump, however, are 6mm.
the specs given here pertain to those bolts through the timing cover and not the water pump, except for one 8mm bolt that goes through the water pump and timing cover both.
the more crucial spec to my mind is for the more delicate 6mm studs that mount the water pump to the aluminum timing cover and not the steel block.
