It's an 8mm metric spline driver. The DIN designation is an 8mm XZN driver, but 
I've never seen this used in US stores.

Be sure to clean out the sockets in the bolts carefully first. You'll probably 
have to tap the driver in there to get enough purchase to not damage the 
driver. And you must TORQUE those bolts to spec when you put them back in.
