MX7040 Screw ID Help!!

[copytechonline]

Hi all one of my techs has taken a 7040 apart and then gone sick, Ive got it back together but I have 2 x strange screws ive never seen before
and wondered if anyone can ID them or point me to the area they should be as I probably have normal screws where they should be at the moment. TIA

yep they hold the fuser in. Not a must but I put them back in so a customer can't remove fuser.

A Tech from our place thought they weren't a must also, until a few weeks ago when a client called to report a loud awful noise. You guessed it, without them there was not enough pressure on the fuser pressure gear. With both gears being metal, it was a scary sound. So, as much as a pain in the ass as it is to put them back in, we do.
