Default rear differential (VTM-4) bolt size

I am about to change the VTM-4 fluid myself. But just realize the bolt is quite different than normal bolt. It's robbinson(?) style. Anyone knows what's the size and the name of it?

I thought there is a DIY for this, but can't find anywhere. Maybe I should do up one DIY for this?

thanks for help.

There are 2 bolts.
The filler bolt is size 18mm and the drain bolt is size 20mm.
Both bolts could be removed by using a 3/8" drive ratchet wrench.

There is a DIY on this subject but is not consolidated under one thread.
Here is one of those related links:
