Thumbs up Size of External Torx bolt on upper transmission mount 2011 Accord 3.5L

I am in the process of replacing all 5 engine mounts on my wife's 2011 Accord. I have the passenger side, front and rear active mounts installed. The upper transmission mount under the air filter has a external torx bolt and I am trying to find out what size the external torx bolt is. In the shop manual it states: NOTE: Do not remove the TORX bolt (B) from the upper transmission mount. If the TORX bolt is removed, the upper transmission mount must be replaced as an assembly. I guess Honda wants to sell you the aluminum mount and the engine mount in tandem. I thought this would be the easiest mount to change. The largest External Torx star socket set I could find is E24 on Amazon. I don't mind buying the sockets if I know I have the right size. Appreciate the help of any experienced DIYer.

I've never needed anything bigger than a 24 on a Honda or any car. I'd say get it from Amazon if it doesn't fit send it back.

Bought the Torx bolt kit and used E24 to remove. For me was very tough at first and repeatedly applied PB Blaster and used a 24inch breaker bar.
