Those are studs, not bolts...

Like achris posted, they are studs. It takes 5 washers (not normal thin flat washers) and 6 nuts for the drive to bellhousing. Then you have the pivot pin, 4 washers (2 different sizes) and 2 nuts for the trim rams on the drive side.

What exactly do you have at this point?

And due to the material used, your best bet would be to order OEM hardware.

Depending on what you need, have a look at item numbers 10-20. http://www.mercruiserparts.com/Show...=220&bdesc=TRIM+CYLINDERS+AND+HYDRAULIC+HOSES

And numbers, 2, 12, 13, http://www.mercruiserparts.com/Show...0065.png&inbr=2203&bnbr=60&bdesc=BELL+HOUSING

Are these stainless?

No, they are chrome plated brass. If you use SS, you may have problems removing them later on. With this, my signature line says it all.

Any Mercury dealer. Either 'walk-in' or on-line...
Yes, they are the part numbers.
