These cars are built for performance, not necessarily economy, and definitely not for being 'bullet proof'. They are complicated, and all complicated machinery is subject to failure. You may never even have a VANOS failure, or a hpfp failure. It's the luck of the draw, and can be weighted by driving style and amount of regular upkeep you are willing to do.
Don't sweat it.

Yea you right you right
If no one comes through with any info on the bolts I will buy this broken VANOS unit from eBay and measure the bolts myself.
