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.

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?
