What size Torx?

To remove the cam sprocket so I can replace the camshaft seal and O-Ring behind it, unfortunately haven't got one big enough 
Found it - T50 Torx
EDIT - this is quite wrong...

It's a male torx bolt,these are all E bla bla.
Female torx fixings,such as plastic bumper mounts,are T bla bla,and look a little like an allan key.

Yep, Often referred to as an Etorx.
I believe there has been both male and female bolts in that position over the years, I think I have seen both a slightly dome headed Torx and a collared Etorx.
I think the change may be related to the location of the distributor as early carb engines use a normal distributor under the inlet manifold.
