Just take the header into Home Depot, go down to the bolt department, and find something that fits. Or, try going to the dealer and get the studs and nuts that you'd use on a stock one

dont go to home depot, go to the dealer. home depot doesnt have anything that's specifically made for a car or the heat along with it.

I dont really think you need any gasket sealer. Im not sure that the gasket sealer could handle the extreme heat of exhaust gases anyways.

just so long as you have the gaskets in it you will be ok. be sure to get a grade 8 or better and use lock washers and thread locker.

Haha, that reminds me of the guy @ Lowes who said I can't use their bolts to mount my engine to my engine stand because they're not made for the heat of an engine. Moron.......

Grade 8 bolts from Home Depot or wherever will work fine.
