Hi last time I had the cam belt done replaced tensioner / rollers etc.
Do you have a diagram of the part required and I will check to see if I have one. If I have you are welcome to it.

I suspect they might be machined (possibly honed) to the head

Yeah, not listed as a seperate parts, so I suspect matched to the head.
