Cheers Sam! Much appreciated.
Have just gone and had a look in th day light and it's good news.
I found the piece that broke off and there is actually a hole in it anyway. The reason the bolt went through was a massive f*ck up on my behalf as there should be a spacer under that bolt (even though service box doesn't show it!). The actual bit of metal that broke off is only about 2mm thick so that will be why I didn't even notice when torquing it up!
Going to get a new bolt in there, new water pump as a wrecked my nice new one and carry on building it up!
