D Series should be like any other engine. I've done a few and there shouldn't be an issue. Two bolts at the top; two at the side (at about 7 o'clock and 5 o'clock.)

The two top ones are long bolts - I use the bolts from the gearbox. The bottom two you can use any long bolts and attach a nut to the other end as they will go right through the attachment point. As e240 said, you use the bolt locations where the gearbox attaches.
