The Honda dealer I worked just reused them without checking to see if they have permanently stretched but the German companies we had did. I did the used cars and went by their procedures.

reuse the bolts ,,,,,,,i have done many, many engine jobs and always reused them with no issues ,
make sure that they are clean and apply a bit of oil to them before re- installing them

The Helm manual has a measurement you can make on the bolts - replace them if it fails the test.

The one & only Honda headgasket job that I did, the bolts were all OK so I used them again.
