Body Damage is Cool

So I had a bit of a setback. Did not have my air pressure fully connected and dropped a valve in the cylinder doing valve seals.

I have removed the DS head to retrieve the valve. FSM does not mention replacing head bolts.

Is it necessary to install new head bolts rather than using old ones?

Thanks
