Nice day today so I got motivated to change the (suspected bad) head gasket on my Tohatsu built (85') Mariner 4 hp. It came apart nicely and it's cleaned up and ready to go back together with the new gasket. Then I realized my aftermarket service manual didn't list a torque spec and sequence for the 5 bolts. Ouch! Now I'm dead in the water until I can get a factory manual (which I thought I also had but can't find.) Could anybody help me out with that bit of info here to allow me to finish up?
Thanks in advance!

Tighten as you would a 5-lug wheel; skip across one bolt as you go, in a "star" pattern. Torque up in at least 2 sets (half torque first, etc.). Here is the torque chart:
