Exhaust Manifold Bolts & A/C Bracket

Ive been spraying down the bolts with PB Blaster to prepare to remove them.

I have a bad exhaust leak.

The four 9/16 bolt heads turn easily with a box wrench, either they are about to snap or they were not tight in the first place.

What size are the middle 3 on the top? 1/2 is to small, 9/16 is to large.

I finally wrestled the oem a/c compressor - alternator mount off so I can replace it with a regular set of alternator brackets.

At some point I know I will have a 200 with a/c and Borgenson p/s.

Do I keep this bracket that mounts the compressor on the passenger side of the engine or are all the a/c systems now set up to mount on the driver side?

Is this ac/alt bracket now a hard to find item?
 
Afaik, they are all 9/16. Probably rusted to a smaller size, maybe try a 14mm? Stick with 6 point sockets. Don't know about the bracket.
