Would someone be so kind to show me a picture front facing of a 350 TPI engine showing the bolts that hold the accessories brackets to the engine block / cylinder heads?

I removed mine a while ago and forgot to take note where they were.

I have 5 bolts with the torque head which I am assuming all belong to the power steering (drivers) side. For the AC compressor side I have one long torque head bolt which should go through the bracket holding the AC compressor however for the rest all I have are studs with a nut half way through. Maybe something else is also held by these bolts?

Thanks to eBay for the image...

8 short (torx) bolts:
3x drivers head
1x passenger head + 1 long torx bolt below A/C... I think this is the upper AIR pump mount.
2x lower into the block on each side... Although original parts has a male-torx stud + 9/16" nut.

Thanks. From the picture I can see that one in each head is a stud. I must have one torx head missing but I think I'll manage with this information.

Thanks again

Putting a stud/nut in the head works, too. For whatever reason, I put the studs in the lower location. I haven't had a 88+ to know where the factory put them. Either way, the stud provides alignment during installation.

Related question. Considering I have these serpentine brackets, and the fact that I have 3 braces (one should connect with AC side bracket, one to the PAS Pump and one to the alternator) can someone send me a picture of the place where these braces bolt to the exhaust manifold bolts?

I have Edelbrock headers and I forgot where the spacers were located. I actually lost the spacers so I have to cut some again.
