Default Throttle Position Sensor: screw size?

Hey everyone. I just went to replace my throttle position sensor and found not only a missing screw, but a stripped hex bolt in place of the torx that the manual says is supposed to be there.

1. What's the PN for the screws?
2. Alternatively, what size are they if I were to replace them?
3. My proposed plan of action is to use an EZ out bit - any danger of using PB Blaster on the sensor housing?

Thanks!

No damage using PB Blaster, you only need a very little so don't go nuts.
