"They all agreed on the exact time." What did, all the big bang models? What do you mean by the latter part of this sentence? That the model agrees with the observations on the time the He nuclei were formed? I'm not sure what this has to do with the uncertainty principle. We know the temperature the universe was at this time (through observations of the CMB now) and we also know that these He nuclei must have formed before stars formed, since they are present in the core of the stars, so it doesn't matter whether we know the exact time they formed; we only need to know that it was before the stars formed.
