Default 4.7 rod bolts

are 4.7 rod bolts suppose to be one time use? I can't find them on O'rielly's website. if they are one time use I suppose I have to buy a set of them and probally cant buy the 2 i need. I pulled the piston out of the hole that had the nut in it to check for piston skirt damage.

From Haynes: The rod bolts on 3.7L and 4.7L engines are a torque-to-yeild design and must be replaced whenever they are loosened or removed.
