If you don't get an answer here, you can contact David Lowe through the members section on the main web page. David has the Cessna drawings that will list the correct rivet.

Those rivets are AN442AD4-x. Univair has a small selection of sizes required. You will also need the proper rivet set. Rivets and the set are available with a Google search.

Whenever we did firewall repairs (stainless steel or ternplate metal) we used monel rivets instead of aluminum rivets.
