The bolts are badly rusted and two have rounded heads.

I think it is 9 and 6 that hold the cover on. The M12 x 80mm holds the support beam on and is a 19 mm head size.

Ah yeah that makes sense — I just checked my project and the bolts into the frame/car are 10 mm and the ones into the auxiliary support/crossmember are 8 mm.

Go with SS if you can & don't forget the lock washers. Flat washers may be necessary too depending on the cover holes.

Done, Ace had everything. Problem now is to get the old bolts out. It’s awkward getting at them from the floor;the head of one M8 is wearing away plus a tough angle.
