so given these bolts will be rusty am i running the risk of snapping them off in the block?

any tips to avoid this happening?

lube them up before unbolting or something?

theyre unlikely to be rusty some v8 headbolts go water you need to use a special sealant on them can get it from repco or holdenor bursons called holden bolt sealer or some crap its about 50 a tin and gets you high as a kite. There'd be something similar that does the same job for less money though
