V6 ES9J4 Locking pins

Shortly I am about to change the cambelt on my Xantia V6. Can someone tell me the dimension (diameters) of the locking pins? As far as I know two have different diameters through the length...

I can as soon as I'm home Xantos as I have an ES9J4 on the stand right now with cams locked..

I think they're 6mm at a guess..

Thanks!

So the locking pins aren't designed like the two bottom ones on the picture (different in diameters)?

No, like the two top ones but in the shape of a 'T'

I did my C5 V6 without any special tools, just found the right size bolts and improvised the rest.

Yes I did that also on my 1.9TD, but when I did a bit of research for V6 engine I came across the pins with different diameter through the length... So M8 bolt should do the trick
