I noticed that PTG makes bolt faces with various firing hole diameters. Will the standard firing pin work with these or do you have to get a pin to match? Or is the idea to measure the pin diameter and match the hole to it?

If you are going to the trouble of getting a new bolt, get the small firing pin diameter and the one-piece bolt. You'll thank yourself later. Buy a matching firing pin with the bolt.

Be careful to measure your bolt carefully before ordering. Don't rely on a caliper. Use a micrometer.
IMO, if there's any doubt, it's better to order the smaller diameter. It may not seem like a lot but the difference, if you order the larger diameter bolt, the bolt will bind in its travel (if it fits at all) and you won't be happyl
