Generally speaking if the tools are all the same brand they will take the same insert. But the numbers on the tool tell you which insert they need.
Based on experience with an older warco machne (1327) same tool post rarely felt the need to use bigger.
And if boring biggers sometimes doesnt fit. All depends what you are making. If you can afford it once you get the right tool holders get more, you can never have enough.
If the holder is 5/8th just stick the 16mm tools in the 4 jaw and knock half a mill off them.
