Hi Graham,
You do have the right size, but die nuts tend to take off a deeper cut that the original. Better to use a split die and adjust it until it is just cleaning the thread without cutting. I hope you can extract the broken ones without having to lift the head and disturb the gasket. Make sure you use a sealant on the threads to help keep the coolant in!
