I'm in the middle of an engine & gearbox swap. I just compared the T5 bellhousing to the auto bellhousing and they look identical, so I reckon the bolt sizes should be the same.

When I did my conversion I only had two bolts. I took one to the local bolt specialist and got a couple of suitable bolts for a few dollars.

In regards to length, you only need enoug to protrude through the thread, but there is plenty of room for the shaft to protrude.

Take the bellhousing with you so they can find the right bolts.
