yes the sandwich plate will deal with the bypass. The heater valve you can drill and tap yourself. I have just had to do this a few days ago on a metro 998 that im putting in my mini. Cant remember the thread sizes of hand though.

Can one do this with the head on the engine? Have just put the whole thing back together?

not really as bits of swarf will go in to the cooling system.
