TR4/4A TR4A Girling Brake Caliper Taken Apart?

I have been given an otherwise good Girling brake caliper(needs new seals) that has been separated into it's two halves. I understand that Moss says they shouldn't be separated because the bolt torque values are unknown and yet they appear to sell the little O ring seal that lives in there? Anyone taken one of these calipers apart successfully ,bolted it back together and knows the torque values?

Have disassembled several calipers to assist with removing the pistons, I replaced seals and put them back together with no problems. Just make sure surfaces are clean.
