Some answers from the 356 crowd. . . the last 356 was a '65, so I'm going to check their manuals to see what they used. . . maybe it is right for a '66 before the updates for the mag case.

The work procedure for removing the starter motor or the engine will require removing one or both of the through bolts that secure each to the transmission housing. The assembly at each upper interface consists of a 10 mm diameter fastener, a wavy washer and a nut. Removal of either of these fasteners can be troublesome, especially the longer of the two, a M10 x 110 DIN 931 8g [now 8.8] that secures the starter motor. The DIN 931 specification indicates that this is a hexagonal head, partially threaded fastener with a standard [coarse] thread and the hexagonal is 17mm across the flats [ATF]. The wavy washer is a B10 DIN 137 where B means that it has a double curvature. The specified nut is a M10 DIN 934 6s, which is a hexagonal nut that is 17 mm ATF. Original finish was black oxide or the German equivalent for all elements of the assembly. What this means is that you will need tooling that is compatible with a 17mm "wrench size".
