Don’t touch the gearbox filler plug!
May still have few EZ outs in the shed

Plenty of conflicting info based on parent materials and bolt tensile but will give an idea. L'otite is always a good adage if in doubt.
Although your wrist is also a good torque wrench

50 seems a lot to me. I don't have a doozle but I can't see reference to that much torque anywhere....? Maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing? Spent some time today helping torque down @Grrrrrr 's head bolts and that's terrifying enough! In, out, 80NM, 90 degrees, undo them all, 50NM, 90, 90 again! It's like one of those Japanese puzzles...
Someone should mention it on his video in the comments!
Anyhoo, enough of this, did you get the stub out!!!????

If you get to that point on the video there ia a box that pops up in the top right hand side with what looks like a correction made to 23nm

There’s not a lot of room. Get your hand in there with scraped knuckles. Can slide sheet of cardboard down there so you don’t ding the rad

There is at the start but I can't see where he corrects the error to 23nm. Where in the video does he put the correction?If you get to that point on the video there ia a box that pops up in the top right hand side with what looks like a correction made to 23nm

Still seems high to me. I woulda guessed around 15, book seems to suggest 10, but there’s no actual torque for the idlers from what I can see. As long as it dont come out it just needs to be snug. I’ve never heard of one rattling off
Notice the fan to coupling bolts (not rivets)

Anything attached to that ally head you just tease tight using your fingertips. It is as soft as cheese. The block is more solid but still don't put your weight on it.

50nm for an 8mm into aluminium is asking for it
