How do you get this bolt in?!

Using the stock bolts from the O2 housing how do I get this in? I bought the DP from another member so if I would've bought new do they come w/ different hardware? It's a MAP O2 dump DP….thanks

Take all the bolts out and pull the downpipe away from the turbo..then put that bolt in first before anything is even tighten down.. Tighten that one first.. You picking up what I"m putting down?
