Default opti bolt lenght

Can anybody tell me if the mounting bolts for the opti go through the timing cover and into the block or do they dead-end in the timing cover.

I have a small oil leak that seems to come from the lower pasenger side opti bolt but since this is the lowest point on the opti it could also trickle down from a bad seal. Haven't taken one off--YET so I'm unfamiliar with all the anatomy.

Thanks--E-fish

They thread into the block through
the timing cover.
