i see no reason why it would make any difference as long as you torque all the bolts down to spec you will be fine

it does not matter which hole you took it out from. I would reccommend however run a tap straight through to clean up the threads and make sure everything is correct.

just run a std tap so you clean the threads and also make sure to use some kind of lube when torquing the studs down. I have found many times the studs dont bottom out properly and will not hold. by running a tap through you clean the threads and make sure there is nothign wrong down there its can be costly.
