Building up a road bike for my lad.

I am taking the Claris Road RD/FR/SHIFTERS off his current bike, along with a used 10 speed 105 Chainset. The cassette is an 8speed.

What chain can/should I use? 8 speed (will it work on the chainset) or 10 speed (will it work on the FD/RD/Casette).

Thanks
 
So no issues with spacing on the 105 (10sp) chainset?
If I have a spare 10sp chain would it work, or just get a new 8sp to be sure?
 
Almost all chainsets are the same, with the exception of a handy 10speed sticker courtesy of the marketing department. Occasionally you get problems the other way round, with a narrow chain stick between chainrings on an old chainset. However the thickness of the teeth is the same.
