Idle going up and down

My idle has been acting up for the last month and Ive isolated it to a warped face at the intake manifold ISC valve on the manifold side. I found that when I was putting another ISC valve on. RTV worked for a week but now its running up and down again. I had a machine shop check my spare manifold and they said its good, no warpage.
While I have everything off I figure Now would be a good time to re-torque the head bolts so I went out and got a Torque wrench at the one and only Sears here in Kuwait. I opened up the valve cover and lo and behold the head bolts are allen bolts. Can someone tell me what size the bolt is so I can get the right allen key? Im at a halt till tomorrow till I get the tool to do this. Sears isn't open at 11PM LOL.
