85 injector/wire covers

Were these one year covers held on with screws or bolts?

Are you talking about these, if memory serves me they are retained 7mm head screws on the Right as part of an aluminum tube bolted to vc that goes from throttle body to valve cover. On Left an aluminum bracket bolted to top valve cover bolts again. 7mm head screws
This style I believe where Iron head exclusive, you can also find them on Camaro and firebird

Yes those are the covers. When you say screws do you mean sheet metal screws or machine screws. 7mm head? What type of head? If its similar to any other bolts near the intake I might be able to get an example of something I already have. I know it sound petty but I dont want to screw up the threads on the aluminum piping,

the 7mm are the standard black trim screws you see all over the car. as for what they screw into are tabs that are part of a pipe that runs on top of VC between Plenum using top Valve cover bolts(right side/Passenger)
Left side is a stamped aluminum Tube/bracket with the tabs for cover and maybe a couple of loom retainers

Left side tube
