Well I am still thinking about the file marks! One little scratch mark can cause a coolant leak right where you are asking about.
I have reinstalled numerous warped heads back on engines of all types. I am sure the head is pulled back straight when the bolts are torqued. Yes it is nice to install one you KNOW is straight but it has never been a problem for me...yet.
