Ive been unsuccessfully trying to get the engine mount screws out. On the bottom of the engine there's another 2 hexes that I cant figure what those go too..

I have removed Rounded hex screws as a last resort by hammering in the next size of torx bit and using socket to remove .
The torx bits bite into the stripped hex head and the shock of hammering them in helps too.
 
Hey, i just ran into that problem this morning, take a propane torch on the smallest setting and heat around the inside of the cover where the screws are , heat them for about 2 mins and then take your hex wrench and carefully back them out. Worked like a charm for me,...hope this helps! Good Luck.
 
I use a mini butane torch from harbor freight......gives a small pinpoint to large flame. Heat inside the hex for a 30 count, insert bit,give it a luv tap and they come right out. Any primal raminator guys no how to play this game!!!!
