Based on the service manual picture you posted, the four vertical bolts are single use and the torque specifications appear to be intended to be “torque to yield,” which permanently elongates the bolt. If they were torqued per that specification they should not be reused. However, if they used a properly limited impact device and only torqued them to the initial torque value of 89 ft lbs and did not do the final 70 to 80 degrees of additional rotation, they never yielded the bolts and they could be “reused” and torqued properly. The biggest issue in deciding whether to reuse them likely will be uncertainty over the torque applied by the impact driver.
In case you don't read these until later today...
PPE makes me "think" that you have a 3.0 Duramax. Which you'd want quantity 4 of the 85628208 seal and NOT the 85628205.
IF you have a gas truck 10 speed, you need one of the 85628205.
