i know how to remove the thermostat on a 2000 Oldsmobile silhouette, but what are the bolt sizes on the exhaust crossover pipe and on the thermostat housing its self?

are they standard nuts and bolts? i usu/ally just try some sockets to see what fits? the exhaust may be worn rusted to a nonstandard size. sometimes i can pound on the next smaller size. you can also buy special sockets for worn/stripped nuts/bolts. also having both american and metric improves your selection for snug fit.
