Default valve cover bolts - Parts

Apologies if this has already been asked many times but searching is getting me knowhere. I noticed a small ole leak on my 530 and decided I would change gasket (had the car about a year and bought as a toy and project) on removal I noticed a lot of hand tight at best bolts which was worrying. So I progressed and done complete removal first shock was the amount of silicone for the existing gasket (also silicone) followed by 2 snapped bolts sittng smiling nicley at me. The snapped bolts arent the biggest issue I can remove these with a bit patience but for reasons unknown I cant seem to but replacements easily.

Would appreciate so suggestions and links for where these can be purchased.

thanks in advance

Locate the part numbers via, https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/select, and then you should be able to find those bolts, easily.
