1. OK Robert the screw can be left and does not need removing so that's ok.First the easy one. The slotted screw is a plug in the end of an oilway drilling, there should be nothing in behind it.
The relief valve little plunger can be a bit of a bugger to get out. There was just a thread quite recently on doing this exact little task but of course I can't find it right now. I recall doing one a year or two ago by getting a drill that was a tight fit in the spring hole in the back of the plunger and gently hand turning it in until it "bit" and then pulling the plunger out.........
The gudgeon pin should be a floater in both piston and small end. What piston is it and when was it last apart? Then start measuring!
I have seen small end bushes replaced in situ but getting it right can be tricky and sizing it after is almost not an option.
I am sure you get lots of advice on all of this from people much closer to you that I am!
