Some stainless studs come with an Allen key socket to make refitting easier. All this stainless stuff is available on eBay. Ensure to get the appropriate thread. I think they're M10 but best measure the stud diameter and length to be sure.

thanks TC, that's a trick my dad taught me, omg, 40 or more years ago.
I'll take a look tomorrow. At the moment I cannot get the original nut back on the stud.
What stops the stud coming undone when the exhaust is removed and the nut undone?
I had a motorbike and when the nut was undone the stud in fact undid and came out, the nut stayed seized on the stud.
