Yep.  I resisted my monkey-like tendencies, and actually did look up the
torque values and sequence in the FSM.  Retorqued after a day or two.
In any case, if there were a problem there I'd expect an exhaust
leak, not a vacuum-like whistle.

I've checked those a couple of times.  But again, I'd expect an
exhaust leak at those points if they were loose.
