Hi Jon.
Personally from my own venture s into replacing the seals etc in the HPFP, i found out that the larger O-ring never needed changing, so if the bolt is really stubborn i would leave well alone.

However i changed them over seeing as i had already took the shaft out.

Changed the main seal as that was damaged.

Usually it's the ones in each chamber that need doing.
