I have included 2 pictures to make sure I am seeing the correct bolt. The answer is 25 Nm for Bolt #7. Is that the one?

looking at pic and you see bolt 10 but has a corresponding bolt directly below (look at where dashed line goes from bolt 10 makes 90 deg turn down and go about an inch and there is another opening just behind dash line for the other bolt. Anyway...same size and same purpose so if you have torque spec for 10 then the other is the same.
Thanks
