Problem changing supercharger oil.

Well, I went to change my supercharger oil and I can't seem to get the bolt off of the supercharger. I'm using allen wrenches and none seem to fit right. Does anybody know what other options I have?
 


I assume its a metric size.

Are the corners rounded? If so, it may be time to use an extractor.
 
It should be a 3/16 allen key IIRC. Make sure the Allen Key is all the way into the bolt before attempting to turn, you dont wanna keep stripping tools. Mine was a but tough to get loose so i just put a closed end wrench on the end of the allen key to get leverage.
 
Depends on the size of the allen head. I don't recall what size it is. Most large hardware stores should sell single extractors of the right size.
 
mine is a torx bit. looked like a Allen but after cleaning it up the points showed. i think it was a t-35 or t-40 not sure tho.
