Where do I attach engine lifting fixture to on 2.7L engine from to remove from 2000 Dodge Intrepid? Sign In

I'm removing a 2.7 from my 2000 Dodge Intrepid. The instructions show the location where to attach the 8342 engine lifting fixture. I want to confirm the locations - on the front it's a hole that takes a 10mm bolt and on the rear it's actually the hole where the top 10mm bolt goes to hold the EGR value on. Is it ok to use the EGR bolts to attach the engine lift or should I buy separate ones? They seem too small a bolt to hold the weight of the engine.
Also, since I can't find a 8342, do you suggest any alternatives? I found a lifing fixture at AutoZone that is similar, except the it has 2 chains attached to the top bar instead of 2 vertical bars attached to the top bar.
