Did your bolt thread bend and/or bind in the clamp? Check fordparts.com for a local dealership if you can't find a used one, the part number is 5A231A and they're ~$45 each. The same ones are used at the end of the manifold as the mid pipe/OTA pipe connection.

I cut my bolt off, bought bar stock at home depot for a few bucks, cut it down to the size, clamped it in a vise, drilled a hole and bought a bolt from the auto parts store. Mine is now fixed after bottoming out in DC's finest potholes. You can also cut the spot weld on the clamp and flip them around so the bolt head faces down and doesn't bend again (thread facing floor pan).
