You may end up destroying some of your tools, but yeah after stripping my torx male sockets I managed to get the screws out by hammering them in so they were jammed on and so the bolt could be removed. Easier than trying to work with a stripped thread .

count the number of points on the star. http://www.powerbuilttools.co.nz/powerbuil...ketonlysets.htm

see. the male torx bits, I think thats what your looking for. Go into repco and they should have them. 3/8†Dr and 1/2†Dr 6pc Male Torx Socket Set. Would probably pay to use a powerbar to turn it, to save thrashing your torque wrench.

Measure hte size and check.

You need the female Torx, sizes E-10, E-12 and E-14.

Check at a wreckers - unfortunately unless someone has a dud motor, then they won't be wanting to sell that peice separate. For those of you confused I think what he is after is the inspection cover that bolts on the bottom of the motor and also to the gearbox bellhousing.

Or maybe you could get it welded. it's alloy, so that makes it a bit harder as older dirty alloy won't weld as easily as new stuff, but it doesn't have to be water tight, so a rough weld would probably do - unless you bent and cracked it getting it off.

Dude, I know its a bit late for lectures, but cutting the bolts would have been a better idea, or using the right tools.
