You don't need a locking kit until you put it together again, surely?  :-X

Looks like you do - the locking kit holds the tensioners so you can remove the chain to remove head (typical BMW design ;))

I have the head gasket (and top end gasket set), and the head bolts....

What I do need is the locking kit (or someone clever enough to improvise), and someone clever enough to assist ;)
