Air filter box bolt size?

I bought an 07 "S" used with about 30,000 miles on it. I went to check the air filter today and found the entire box just sitting in place. I am assuming the previous owner had an aftermarket intake kit on it. I found where there appears to be a spot on the left side (passenger side) where two bolts are supposed to go........anyone know what size bolts they are?

TIA

no

I'd just get some self tapping screws that bite ... I'm pretty sure that's all that's there in the first place.
