Default 97 Ranger Power Steering/AC Bracket Mounting Bolts broken/missing, need sizes please!

Hello folks, I purchased my '97 Ranger and have driven it for one year. Everything was great, no problems at all, until I begin hearing the typical "your belt is loose awful screeching sound". I pop the hood and discover my belt is in good shape still. After closer inspection I realize the bracket which holds the AC/Power Steering pump together and to the engine is missing, as far as I can tell, two mounting bolts and a third is broken! The numb skull who owned it before me must have pulled the bolts only to replace one. Now I have one bolt, the one which mounts directly under the AC unit broken off in the engine, and two missing. After the removal of the broken off mounting bolt I am at a loss as to what size the missing two will be.
If someone could please post up a place I could locate the sizes of these mounting bolts, or the actual sizes of the bolts them selves I would be much obliged!!! Thanks fellows, I would appreciate any advice. There is a very well stocked "Bolts 'n Nuts" store in my town, I am sure they would have the appropriate replacement, I simply need the sizes or how one would go about obtaining the knowledge!
