The bolts that hold the head on, need new ones when you take it off apparently...

cylinder head bolts they would be.
you'd get a funny look in the motor factors asking for piston head bolts.
and yeah they stretch when you fit them, so need replacing each time.

ah ha.
that bit set is a bit more well stocked than the splined set for a tenner.
you'll probably need a 1/2"-3/8" drive convertor and a 3/8" drive torx socket for the headbolts.
i couldn't find a 1/2" drive socket to fit into the bolt holes.
even with the 3/8 drive one i had to take the cams out for access.
