10Nm 7ft/lbs I would just nip them up using a small 1/4" ratchet with a short handle.

Nuts are not inside the area containing coolant on the housing anyway. Do the longer studs enter
the water jacket or oil gallery?

If they do then yes you can add some blue threadlock. I would put a small amount on and let it partially set and then
add some more just before fitting so you get a thicker buildup of threadlock material.
