AVCS Cam Gear Cleaning Question - Please Help!
So I looked everywhere for an answer to this and couldn't find one. I am trying to diassemble my Intake AVCS cam gears so they dont damage my newly built engine and heads. They have a 5 point bolt that I have never seen before. Wikipedia calls it a pentalobular security bit and is slightly famous because apple uses the bit for the Iphone. The Iphone bits are far to small for this and general hardware stores don't carry it. Any help in finding the bit I need or a workaround would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks Shane Smith Picture of bolt to help you help me

Snap-On has them call up Outfront Motorsports they rebuild them all the timeand they can tell you for sure. However there is a non-replaceable gasket in the cam do not destroy or throw away. At least the last time I checked you can not buy a new gasket.

I have a big set (for my car) and a little set (for my Apple stuff, LOL). I wish you were local.
