Torx or Torx Plus

[Odyssey USA]

Ok, I’m into it doing head gaskets and so far these Torx appearing bolts have been low torque and no issues removing them. Then I see a post in a YouTube video comment section making me question the T30 I’ve used so far for the timing chain guides and tensioners. This person said they are actually Torx Plus in this Cloyes 3.2/3.6 timing chain install video (not the correct, newer/revised part number but watched anyway).

Have I missed the fact they are actually T30 Plus? Or are there some Torque Plus and regular Torx mixed in there? I’ll put eyes on it when I can but it would be nice to go ahead and put in an order if I need to.

Is there IP stamped onto the face of any of the bolt heads? If so, apparently they're Torx Plus.

I don’t see a P and now taking a look at it, I don’t think it’s a plus. The outer edges look too pointy instead of a straighter cut.
