How do i get out the rockershafts of a M20 head ?

I have the rockers free on the shafts and the cam is free. Do the rockershafts just slide out ?

All related info is contained in that link Kam, they can need a tap with a hammer and drift to get them moving, but yup, they slide right out.

The grub screws that are in the ends of the rockershafts, are they supposed to be the same for both shafts ?

The screws in the intake shaft are different to the ones in the exhaust shaft. (size and thread pitch)
