In Stephen King's novel Rose Madder her toga is called a chiton by one character and a zat by another. What is the difference or significance?

Rosie McClendon calls it a chiton because a chiton is a real word for the sort of garment Rose Madder is wearing, while Dorcas calls it a zat because that's the word Stephen King made up to call it in his made-up world in the story.

The more common term is "chiton," which refers to a garment worn in ancient Greece. The use of "zat" in the novel may be an intentional deviation by the character, possibly to emphasize their eccentricity or unique perspective. Both terms likely refer to the same type of garment in the context of the book.

What Stephen King book contained the character Alex Machine?
It's from The Dark Half. It's actually a character in a book series written by Thad Beaumont/George Stark, the novelist who is the main character in The Dark Half. So it's kind of an obscure character who's really a character of a book within a book. Confusing, but there's your answer. Alex Machine represents the sadistic, darker tones of George Stark, Thad Beaumont's pen name. Stephen King got the name Alex Machine from another author book. He gives credit to it, but I can not remember who the author is?

Will actor James Murray return to primeval will 'Helen' find another 'Stephen' in another anomolie?
"I think Stephen will appear because.....well he did die eventually,but he is a main character,sure Tom-Ryan died and he was a main character,but I heard updates of that Tom-Ryan and Stephen appearing in series 3 and/or 4,so that's a yes!!" Sadly, I think it's unlikely. Stephen stayed put in his grave throughout Series 3. While production on the new series is reportedly now underway in Ireland, the actor who played Stephen has been cast in the pilot of a new American television series. He gives every appearance of having moved on, while the creative team behind Primeval, Tim Haines and Adrian Hodges, have both previously confirmed that we would not see Stephen again.
