question on reusing bolts as part of rear caliper rebuild

Can’t be a lot of torkx on 7mm, that’s the size I snapped off inside the cam holder.

I've found anything critical I replace hardware on now. Why? Like you, I snapped off a bolt on a cam cover/cam bearing on a Ninja 650 and spent several months trying ever more creative (dangerous) ways of removing it. I was eventually victorious, but at the cost of lost sanity... Frankly, I now replace things I once was not inclined to.

Can we get much more critical than brakes?

Cup holders?

Source for the o-rings that seal the two halves of the caliper:

I did find the source from this site. Initially I didn't think the link to PMB performance was the right one but I now realize they updated their website sometime in the last few months when I bought from them.
