I think it is impossible to install them out of place.

The shortest 1/4 inch bolts (very short) go only into the engine 
front plate with tapped holes where there is nothing else benind 
it.  The longer 1/4 inch bolts (2) go onto the two lowest holes where 
they screw into the front main bearing cap.  The rest are larger thread size.

HZS0403   1/4-28-UNFx3/8  (3)  Front cover to mounting plate.
HZS0406   1/4-28-UNFx3/4  (2)  Front cover to main bearing cap.
HZS0506  5/16-24-UNFx3/4  (4)  Front cover to mounting plate and crankcase.
