8 and 9 probably hold the air pipe brackets (both on the left side of the manifold) to the manifold.

The washer is for the fpr.

I thought 17 and 18 looked a bit short for the tb (i assume the raster is 1cm^2)

2 and 3 look thicker and so maybe bracket/brace bolts from block to throttle body?

4 and 5 could be throttle cable bracket.

What you can also do is check the markings on the head. Toyota has a system which gives you the appropriate torque value. This can help you find where the bolt belongs.

Is their anything Toyota hasn't thought of?

On a related note, the other day I asked my neighbour if he had a long 12mm socket I could borrow and he was totally incredulous. He maintained that you just don't get 12mm and 14mm on cars and my problem must definitely be that I'm using the wrong size socket :lol:

LOLZ!!

Along the same lines:
I was doing suspension and fuel pump work on an older mercedes W124 last weekend and there are literally thousands of 13mm bolts and nuts.
