Apologies if mentioned, and Paul has likely have done this, but would he be
wise to remove that bolt?

If bolt installed in a hurry, and hole not cleaned beforehand, oil could be
trapped between bolt and block. My understanding is that oil trapped in a
blind hole on block or head is not good. (heat expands oil possibly causing
a crack?)
