Those are very common and are Torx bolts. Get a set of sockets as you will be using them again and again. Cheap and easy to get.
Sad to see the slathered RTV too as you will need to remove all of it. Hopefully there are no other hack repairs on your car.

When posting put where you at because this is mainly a US forum so we don't get the same stuff as other markets do.
