The axle is probably fine, the tranny end of the half shaft might be chewed up though.
You can get the bolts from any B-series engine, a B18A1 or B18B1 would probably be the easiest to find.

I use the tube and funnel method to fill it throught the 17mm bolt in the upper right of the pic below but...
...here is how B18C5-EH2 does it,
Locate the drain plug and use a 3/8'' driver with no socket and remive the drain plug:
Here's where the trick comes in that will save you headahces. Usually you have to ghetto-rig a funnel and tube to fill the tranny in the fill hole which really sucks. My method is really easy.
1. Remove the vent cap found near the front/top of your tranny:
2. Find the Speed sensor located on the topside of the very back of your tranny:
3. Take the 10mm on a big-*** extension and remove the bolt (it's the orangish one in my pic - yours probably won't be oragnish):
4. Now see that big-*** hole left after you move the speed sensor out of the way? Use the funnel and fill through that hole! By the way, no need to unplug the speed sensor - just move it out of the way.
5. Fill up with specified amount or until fluid dribbles from the fill hole below.
6. Put the speed sensor back in, tighten up the fill plug (if you loosened it).
7. Replace the vent cap and you're done!
Now put your wheel back on, torque the lugs to spec with a torque wrench and take your car for a test drive!

I would drain and refill the tranny. When was the last time it got done anyway?

anything dangerous to be around in there? cause i may have to drill out some bolts
i havnt gotten a great look at the other to holes to see if they broke or just backed out/previous owner never put them in.

Re: is my axel shot? what should i do please help!!!!!
so if two of the parts where its mounted onto the block are broken? is there anyway i can replace those? or am i that ****ed and need a new block? the bracket is only being held in by one bolt. the bottom one. if you dont understand what im saying then i will take pictures later tonight when my sister comes home with the camera and post them. and if i do need a new block. anyone got a b16a block, in the CT area??
Re: is my axel shot? what should i do please help!!!!!
No one else wants to post in this thread?
Can't be repalced, they are cast into the block. Doubt it's worth trying to fix.
There is a company in Jersy that sells them. Don't know if they are legit or not.
