what are these things called?

I know them as exhaust studs but eBay is comming up with nothing. They are like bolts but with a small round head (no spanner or allen key) but with splines to hold them into a flange on an exhaust pipe.

I ordered some parts out of a parts catalogue. The picture shows studs fitted to the exhaust pipe but without a separate part code. I have pipes, M10 fine nuts and gaskets but no studs to hold them together. Perhaps I'm searching on the wrong word. The only thing I can find on eBay are the double ended studs that go into the head and bolt on the manifold. I don't want these.

Just a guess...

Why not just stick a normal bolt through and tighten with suitable nut? Do you need the captive qualities of the part with splines?

They're a lot like wheel studs except M10 fine pitch.

No, I don't suppose so. I think I'll take the nuts over to my friendly bolt shop tomorrow lunch time and ask "have you got anything to fit this?"
