T-4 to AMC 150 Bellhousing bolt question

All,

I have an 84 with the 4 cylinder AMC 150 and a T-4 transmission. I'm unable to locate the reference photos I took from when I disassembled the bellhousing from the engine. I've re-installed the bellhousing with the bolts in the positions I believe they should be going to. However, I have two bolts left to use and three holes to fill (insert joke here). Here are the bolts I have remaining.

A. 1/2" torx bolt that is 3" long with a nut.
B. 1/2" flanged hex bolt that is 2" long which has a small angled bracket and a nut.

The three currently empty bolt locations are along the bottom of the bellhousing. My problem is that it does not appear that the 3" long torx bolt long enough for one of the holes, and way to long for the other two holes. The bracket for the remaining hex must also serve a purpose but for the life of me I can't out. Now I'm wondering if the other bellhousing bolts I've installed are in their correct positions. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

I removed my T4 and 150 a little more than 2 1/2 years ago and remember removing that but didn’t go back with that combo so I just don’t remember where. I searched my photos and didn’t take one because I wasn’t going back with them.
