Guys, can anyone advise on the hex size for the starter bolts? Looking at them I'd say 8mm or 10mm but as I need to buy a hex socket, I thought I'd ask ......

The parts manual says 3/8" UNC. Mine has socket head bolts which a TX 50 just about fits as a bodge or a 7.8mm allen key for a good fit.

8mm. At least that's what my hex head socket says on it.

3/8" UNC sounds more like a description of the thread than the head of the bolt.
