OT-Head bolts for 1.8t



Ok so I finally got around to pulling the head off my 1.8T 1999 Passat that I bought this summer. The one that blew a timing belt...(That's how I got it cheap) anyway so I get to pulling the head off and get it down to the head bolts and what the f...? I've pulled the heads off 16v but the bolts are different.  I have a 6pt T-50 and T-55 and it seems to be in between???  Also mine don't quite reach far enough to get the back and possibly the front bolts(those suckers are all down in little holes).

So am I stuck buying the VW "SPECIAL" tool  #3452 or is there another tool I can pickup here locally that does the same job?

Pisses me off to get half way into a job and not have the right tool.

Thanks for any input
