Messy messy messy, this was in between the radiator and a/c condenser !
Old bolt snapped off in head !
New water pump installed !
Correct water pump bolt installed on top !
This is the bolt that snapped, you can see compared to the original bolt this one is not as thick.

Ha ha ha fun ? oh yeah !
It's actually not as bad as it looks, just being methodical is best, keeping track of all the bolts etc,chasing threads staying organized is best, but the hard part is waiting on parts and of course broken bolts.
If i had had all the parts and time it could have been done in 3 days taking it easy, it's just really really really messy ! lol
Thanks again for your help you saved me a lot of time recommending the right pump !

Update
So took it out for normal driving,
Coolant temps are now normal, no more than 198.
Oil temp still too high for my taste, at 250 degrees.
I'll be testing the oil temp switch to see if that's the issue, will update soon.
