Husqvarna exhaust bolts 385xp (Likely a bunch of others too)

I'm working on restoring an old Husqvarna 385xp thats
backfiring.
Ive rebuilt the carb redone the ignition and now that its still
not changed i'm looking at bigger and uglier issues
Based on how dirty it was I'm trying to pull the exhaust and
look at the cylinder (I also half suspect the muffler may be
clogged up based on how dirty the saw has been and that is a
possible source of the backfires.
Problem is the two deep bolts are so dirty that i cant find the
hex head, nor do i know the size of metric allen key I should be
fishing in the hole with.
I'm hoping someon knows the bolt size off hand or if there is a
trick to getting it off other than the sawzall or angle grinder
if those bolts are seized or stripped (Or is that time for a new
piston and exhaust?)

I could walk and and grab the right t-handle to check, but never
paid attention. Betting 5mm allen
Tough to break loose is good. Better then loose. Most times they
make a loud snap sound when broken loose.
