quick distributor cap question

are the 3 screws of the distributor cap of a B16 replaceable? i have 2 broken screws, one snap by itself and the other one snap while i was tightening it. some people told me that it's replaceable while some said it's not. i tried pulling out the remaining screw but it won't come out. any idea?

thanks for any help.

The bolt screw should be able to thread out of the cap from the face, or drop out from the back.

They're probably M5x.8x31mm bolts.

The bolts on the cap are replaceable ,but you can just replace the cap there not that expensive.
