(N 010 072 1) M10 x 1 x 28 bolts, two (311 405 343) M10 x 1 x 52 bolts and
two other bolts which varied in length according to the year. Up thru 65
this was 311 405 341, which was an M10 x 1 x 62. After that, it was 311 405
343B, an M10 x 1 x 42.

No, this is one of the bolts on the wheel cylinder side, which sounds like
your N 010 072 1 M10 x 1 x 28 bolts.  My parts book is missing that page so
I cannot give the exact details of what's there but it's #5 on diagram A32,
revision 8.

The 28 mm bolt is too short for the front one, it has to thread through a
large spindle casting too.

Here's a pic of the correct bolt installed, the threads stick out quite a
bit:

The 2 long bolts you mentioned can be seen above it.

VW?  Ok, that would have never occurred to me.
