Plating studs

There are so many little studs on this engine that are kinda ratty. Some have worn threads and need to be replaced.. some are fine and just need plating. There was one I put a dye on and it seems fine now. it's a collection of chaos.

Is there any reason not to put certain studs to replace/replate? I have pulled all of the cam housing studs out without issue. I have a set of cheap threaded stud puller/installers and it is working fine so far. But I don't want to do anything I should leave to the pros, because I'm totally a noob. ;-)
