Do you want a torx socket or key?

Both are available in lots of different sizes.

Examples:

it would be the key neede but they are not torx they look to have loads of small grooves rather than a star shape?

The Socket is called an E20 socket and that nut is STUOOOPIDLY Tight!

if its standard, and similar to my later xev engine, it is a femal torx socket that you need.

Torx --- the manual should give you the size, the correct size will be a really snug fit.

On a seperate note, I've been using a set of these for almost 5 years now and haven't broken one yet. (Mechanic by trade).

the 6 small bolts are number 8 multisplines IIRC, the centre bolt is an e20 torx.
