Ok i have to change the timing chain cover gasket and i already happen to have 2 brand new sets of gears chains tensioners and guides so figured why not im wondering what size the torx bolts are the one on the cam and the one on the guide
 






I didn't buy any torx bits to do mine but I had a T50 from removing the seat belts. Pretty sure that's what I used on the cam gear. Either that or I borrowed a Torx.

On the tensioner... I don't remember. Looks like a T20 or so. Do yourself a favor and buy a set that has T10-T50 or so. It comes in handy. I bought one of these a while back and it's massively useful:

The driver/wrench isn't beefy enough to break torque on the chain tensioner fasteners but the bits are top quality and you can stick them on a 1/4" socket with a good ratchet and go to town.
