They are 3/8 UNC thread. A ball ended Allen key and cap screws is the way to go.

Or, the Chevy mini-hex stainless exhaust manifold screws are available from Real Steel, and exactly the same size as Rover. You can get an 8mm or 5/16" ring spanner in to them, in case you don't have room for an Allen key.
