Head bolt torque specs???

Can someone please tell me the proper head bolt torque specs for my 2010 mini base model with the N12 motor? I have read so many different posts and everyone is different. I tried one that said a 3 step process (25 then 50 then 75 foot pounds) but getting to 50 seemed way to much for the block so I would like to know if there is another torque spec for this motor? thanks in advance

The official numbers are 30Nm, then 90°, then 90°.
