Vent screw: 10-79953Q04(18-2244, 18-2387), gasket 12-191833 (18-2945-9). Lower screw (w/magnet): 22-8M0Q58389 (better number: 18-2375). Can get on iBoats.

You can search iBoats parts site, also look on places like Amazon..... Simple search: 18-2375, 18-2945-9, 18-2244.

Good luck!

(you answered while I was editing... Yep Love Amazon Prime!... Thread size/pitch is same...3/8-16. Upper screw does not have magnet. I avoid using a magnet in upper screw hole because it may interfere with the gears. I bought one of each, plus gaskets. Note that most water pump kits now come with those gaskets. too).
