I ordered a new head bolt set from AN but it appears to be short a few washers? I would think the shorter cap screw and the .378 diameter stud should have washers as well?

Cap screw?

There's no washer under the #2 nut (49) and the washers under the sleeve nuts were later deleted although they are still available #50 so you appear to have one washer missing.


 
Cap screw..the shorter head bolt. Thank you. Guess I"ll have to reuse an old one.
 
Ive never liked the std small diameter washers on the head bolts. They deform the counterbore and squeeze metal into the bolt hole


I touch a counterboring tool into the bolthole just to clean up the seat, making it flat, and then turn up some thicker stainless washers that are a neat fit in the counterbore.
One of the bolts in the photo has been waisted to make it into a stretch bolt
