I didn't have a unique length #17. https://www.partzilla.com/catalog/suzuki/motorcycle/2005/boulevard-s40-ls650/...

This way you know exactly what goes where when you go to bolt it back up.

Smart Philly. I did that with the head cover, but not here. I followed the prior owners mistake and that was obviously wrong, then swapped a couple that seemed better, but at the end of the day - I'm 1 bolt off. Hole 17 per the parts diagram is missing from my set of bolts. I have one coming and I'm anxious to see it's length and test it.

I still have the fun of getting this leak resolved once and for all.
