Having struggled to get a standard 3 inch feeler gauge blade into the gap, I saw these on Ebay and reckon that they might be the very thing for the job. I wonder if they do them in the appropriate sizes for water cooled?

These are the same, I assume, but badged as Wunderlich, available from Nippy Normans
They are £10 but postage would be extra, unless you make up total to free post ( add an oil filter set?) but they do say Postage rates start from £2.99.

In our view, these feeler gauges are the best and most accurate for adjusting the valves on your four valve boxer. When adjusting the valves, it’s very important to use two feeler gauges. If you were to adjust one valve at a time, the small amount of play that exists in the rocker arm bearings will make it nearly impossible to get an accurate and consistent adjustment on both valves. The trick is to have two feeler gauges, one for each valve. You’ll be able to evenly match the drag that you feel on each set of valves. These feeler gauges are the perfect length and each one features a grippy plastic handle that provides the feedback needed for an accurate valve adjustment, even with oily hands. We supply a kit consisting of two 0.15mm gauges for the intake valves and two 0.30mm gauges for the exhaust valves. They are color coded for easy identification. Professional quality tools, made in Germany, that will last a lifetime.

If you can find them or similar, I have a set of Cornwell RG-FG-26 feeler gauges that have a 45 deg. bend in them and work really well for getting into all the valve clearance spaces. I've had them for 20 years or longer and don't know if they are available anymore. Maybe somebody else makes a comparable set?

For those in the U.S. Blue Point (sold by Snap-On) gets less than $20 for p/n FB300A bent feeler gauge set.
