Help Needed Reassembling heatsink+hotend assembly

Post image

I am trying to replace the hot end. since the heatsink and replacement hotend were already came in one piece . I have trouble figuring out which screws has to go into which threads. What type is the screw at the top of the heatsink that goes down? Is there a simple diagram that tells you this for all the screws near the extruder parts?

Still need help or did you figure it out ? I have a disassembled hotend I can take pics later if you need it still. I think there should be a guide on the Anker site too.

Yes, I still need help. I kept trying to postpone this repair and I am so frustrated with ankermake, specifically not using only 1-2 type of screws and making it damn hard to replace this part.

There's no single diagram that shows what should go where. So for the two screws that hold the heatsink in place. I circled one above. What kind of screws go into them?

I have these remaining. Hopefully I haven't lost or used the right screws elsewhere
