That looks to me like a torx socket, maybe a t40?

Porsche does dumb **************** with some of these plugs, like the triple square"anti theft" 5 speed transmission plug.

Id love to know the story behind this. A Porsche exec's mistress' husband finds out about the affair, and to seek revenge the husband uses an 8mm Alan key to drain the guys oil in the middle of the night, destroying the engine when the cheating bastard tried to go to work the next morning. He cabs it to work and the first order of business is to change all oil plug specs!

Sorry, it's late, I found that amusing...
