Merkel Allen Key size

Does anyone know the key size for the set screw on the Merkel 141 bushed firing pins ?
I take it that it's smaller than 1.5mm because I have tried that and it seems to be too large .
It seems that there is a 1.3mm and a 1mmm but I am being careful in case Damage the key hole .
Thanks

Look closely. It may be a mini Torx head. I've mistaken a few.
