Thanks Frank.
The waterpump sits reasonably flat against the block.
There is a very minute top/bottom wobble that disappears when I hold the waterpump tightly against the block, so I think the bolts will pull it tight.

There doesn't seem to be any head gasket leaks so I'll take your advice and leave the HG bolts, and well enough, alone.
