External Torx bolts

Hi folks,
Not bike related but I’m restoring a 1993 MGR V8 and need some (120 Off) external Torx bolts (M6 x 25 long) in Stainless.  Hours of web trawling has not produced anything.  Do any of the members know of a supplier?  There is a site called Fastener Data, which has a supposed list of suppliers but I’ve contacted all of them without success.
This is what they look like:

These are used on BMW cam blades at that size but, I have never seen them in stainless only in 10.9 grade  ;)
Found a company that has listings for DIN 34801 Jiaxing Zhapu Mingsheng Fasteners, maybe worth a email but, I found that a lot of fastener companys  have a minimum order of $500  :o

Same as Trigger and yourself,  not been aware of them in stainless. Are those the one's that are on the oil pump cover plate?

I've used for years AHC of Camberley,  they've got a Web site posted but seems a prototype so you'd have to ring them to ask anything like that.

If suitable,  you may have more choice in titanium as a lot of motorsports fitment may be closer to that field.

Was looking on here as they seem to offer in that range.

Orcade-Ian:
Many thanks for the replies folks,
I’ll see what they can come up with.  The application is for dummy bolts on the wheels (30 on each) and they were originally aluminium alloy and a press fit into the wheel.  They were only present on one wheel when we got the car and according to all owners are a PITA to clean around.  Some have changed them for button head Allen bolts but after finding that pic of stainless Torx, I started trying to source some.

I intended to put them in with Duralac barrier Paste and just remove occasionally for easy clean.
I could always bzp the BMW ones - are they from a particular model of BMW Trig?
