while the 110 300tdi was on the ramp and in the shop I noticed 3 bolts - 1 def missing, 2 apparently not according to mechanic but wanted to double check

1) turbo to manifold (no pic, but googled a few times and cannot see a reference to what thread / size so I can order one. The three I have seem to hold boost ok, but...

2) clutch housing, see pic

3) in front of sump, see pic

If you are regular in deep water wading plugs need to be fitted but also need to be removed quite often to allow any oil that may have collected to be drained.
