Fuel Line Bracket Studs?

Hi, so I'm in the process of replacing the fuel lines after they rusted out, and the kit I bought provides bolts for new brackets. Can the studs from the old fuel line brackets be removed or are they welded?

Sorry no, I’m thinking 6 or 8 mm

I just separated the bracket halves, did not remove the whole bracket

Just following up with the thread, the studs are 6mm. I just ran a die on the studs and they worked great again.
