Where to buy the V6 valve cover , nuts that hold down the cover

Hey guys, I'm looking for the 6 valve cover nuts that hold the valve cover down. Does anyone know if these are still available or what the part number or real name might be? It's the brownish nipple looking thing, - 6 of them on the VC

Do you need the nut, or the rubber washer beneath it? Unless you lost some of them, they can be re-used. You can get replacement washers here. If you need the nuts, call your Toyota dealer or seek them out at a salvage yard.

It was the nut, I took them off to clean the valve cover and powdercoat it, but in the process they blew away in the wind. Definitely wasn't responsible in that situation. Thank you for the link for the washers though

The best site I found is toyota parts zone. They have detailed drawings that clearly show all parts and links to illustrations. It's really the only site I've found for toyota oem parts that is worth a damn. It appears that most toyota oem sites are monopolized using god awful software that doesn't do anything useful for diy'ers.

Thanks for that link to that store....you solved my question I just posted about not being able to find the center engine mount. But something is odd because the aftermarket one is more expensive than the OEM from toyotapartszone.
