The valve lift on most any stock vehicle will be anywhere from .30 to .35 inches ..... which converts to a max of about 9mm. I think it'd be a cold day in hell when an engine consumes a 10mm bolt. Like I said, it might be possible to ruin the head (and even then just one valve and valve seat) with a bolt, but realisticly not an entire engine.
