How do you get this bolt in?!

Using the stock bolts from the O2 housing how do I get this in? I bought the DP from another member so if I would've bought new do they come w/ different hardware? It's a MAP O2 dump DP….thanks

the alternative would be putting a stud in there and then just having to throw a nut over it.
