Not a problem on that head bolt.
Clean the threads and follow the torque sequence drawing and re-torque every
bolt on the head.
If you develop a head gasket leak later I'd be surprised.

Subject: Head bolt question

This is a general question, and I'm actually asking in regards to my '72
Land Cruiser, but you guys will know the answer too.  If I remove one head
bolt (#11), can I replace it at the proper torque setting or should I pull
them all and replace them in order?
