Hood Bolts

Greetings All,
My front hood sags and I need to align it. I got blocks cut to manual specs for alignment.
I have two bolts missing (one on each side) from behind the doors. Does any know the size of these bolts? Is it a metric bolt?
They look odd, like the thread count of a wood screw. It looks to have more threads per inch than a coarse machine screw.
I removed one of the remaining to get measurements And here is what I got.
7/16" wrench size
1/4" diameter
.668" bolt length from the head.
6 threads (so maybe this would be 12 threads per inch)
It looks like there is raised CFC embossed on head if this means anything.
Other than "just enough", does anyone know the torque specs for all the hood mounting bolts?
Thanks for all replies.
