turbo oil drain

Supposed to get my hx35 today so i was gathering some tools for it this morning. What size are the bolts for the oil drain on the H1C, 11mm is to big but 10mm to small, same with 7/16 and 3/8. I think I can get the two bolts off with pliers, but it's a tight fit in there.
Thanks
Sam

Sam, it is 10 mm. I've had several off, and they were all 10 mm.

Tried again and the bolt on the engine side takes a 10mm perfect like you said dave but I can't get it on the fender side. I guess something was done to it in the past that messed up the head. Anyway, I think I can get some pliers on that to get it off since it's a little more open on that side.

You may try an open end wrench instead of a socket...maybe the bolt is too close to the drain pipe...???

Tried it too, but thanks. I'll think I'll be good with pliers, I hope, and then take a better look at it once it's out.
