There are 2 bolts that hold the intake manifold to the exhaust manifold next to where the carb mounts, they have 12 points each, look like star, but apparently are not? does anybody know what type of socket fits these?

Not OEM.

Internal or external 12point?
External-a 12 point socket will work easily.
Can you post a picture?

Most SAE sockets come in either 6 or 12 point, sounds like you have 6 point sockets. A trip to HF will solve the problem.
 
Wish I knew-

I feel dumb.



How in the heck do I post images, I thought that I was more tech savvy, guess not.



Use Tapatalk way easier than the website, it has an icon on the bottom of a camera or picture pick one and post easy
