Default Camshaft Bolt removal tool?

I will be replacing the front and rear seals on my cam tower housing and I am trying to find the 12 pt torx tool for use with an impact driver. I was told it is called an M torx. This thing is pretty hard to find. Does anyone know where I can get one? Thanks!

I thought it's an M10x65 cheese head (triple-square). I use an impact wrench while the timing belt is stil tensioned. Even with the cam tower off a good impact and triple-square will remove it without stripping the bolt.

DOT NOT use a Torx!
