Anyone know where these bolts might be from?

Not to worry, it's an old mechanics trick to "prove" that they actually worked on your vehicle. Check for some oily smears on your upholstery and hand/finger-prints on your hood, right dead center on the front so you can't miss it; more dead giveaways. Seriously though, curious to see the outcome here.
You forgot donut crumbs.

I found matching bolts with a little help from GCATX. There's 3 holding this flange (shaped similar to a thermostat flange) on right side cylinder bank that appear to be identical to the extra ones I found. Not going to lie, I'm not even sure what that is. I'm fairly ignorant on these newer engines, especially the electronics side. I tried looking on the Tasca site and couldn't find it. I was really surprised to find out the engine cover is a giant piece of foam when I took it off!

I believe that is the high pressure fuel pump. Not my pic but this shows it.

Thanks. That's definitely what I was looking at and you can see the bolts in your picture. That was the only guess I had, because of the hard lines going to it and a wire harness. But I was definitely only guessing. That is one complicated little beast. It's crazy when I think of how much things have changed since my 1965 Plymouth, which was my first car. Power steering was the only option it had. Very easy to work on though!
