Do the different length XE head bolts have different heads? My mate made the mistake of fitting the shorter ones and reckoned he had nowt but trouble. He has a history of wrecking things though!

The ones he removed were supposedly the longer type, inhex heads on them.

Can you not measure the bolts you took out?
