Default B18b1+EG hatch swap help/problems

I swapped in a b18b1 out of a 94 teg into my 92 hatch. So, ive got all the mounts in and bolted down, except for the divers side front mount down on the bottom of the block. I dont have a bolt for it and i dont know where to find one. Any suggestions?

Is it normal to have black grease/film on the inside of the intake manifold when you open the butterfly?

I can get pictures for the mount question if that would help.

For the mount bolt....go to the wreckers and pull off the bolt from another engine or take it to a specialty bolt and nut shop and have them match up the bolt exactly.

For the intake manifold film/grease inside the manifold itself, yes thats normal. Just get some parts cleaner, pull off the manifold and you can clean it up nice

That front pulley is not for power steering anyways, its connected to the AC bracket, and is the tensioner for the AC belt. Like someone else said, that pulley below is your crank pulley. You need it to run your alternator even if you are without PS and AC.

EDIT: I may be wrong. My statement would be correct if this were single cam, but on second look, that may be part of the ps and not AC.. I can't really tell.
