Please advise shank length for HBZ412 & HZS408. I presume there are 6 of each bolt, correct me if I'm wrong. 11 have a spring washers, 1 has a collar and a flat washer.

The block to gearbox casing mating has 2 x lengths in 1/4" thread.

Generally in the case of BMC bolts & screws, the letters prefix refer to type, i.e. thread & finish.
The (4) suffix numbers refer to diameter & length: The first 2 figures represent diameter in sixteenths of an inch; the second 2 figures refer to the length in eighths of an inch.

In this case:
HBZ412 is a UNF thread of zinc finish, 1/4" diameter ([0]4 x 1/16), 1 1/2" long (12 x 1/8).
I'll let you work out the length of the second example... HZS (zinc-plated) bolts were threaded full-length.
