I'm in the middle of a head gasket replacement, I don't want to round off the Head Bolts. So I'm asking if they require a special tool? They look like a 12 point bolt, I found a site from an owner who said a 14mm 12 point is what he used, I stopped by a local Autozone and they said it may be a "triple square" head.

Any Guidance?

You are right about the head bolts. They are 14mm 12 pt socket.
