Default Removing fuel skid plate

Have searched and can't find the answer to this anywhere.

Factory manual says to just remove the inboad screws, then remove bolts. Wish it were tha simple. I have the 2 passenger side bolts out but can't for the life of me find where the front/passenger side "screw" is.

Anyone have any tips for getting this skid plate out? I need to replace the fuel pump and as much of a pain as this is, dont think I'm going to put the thing back in when I'm done. If the screw they are refering to is the torx screw anyone know what size it is?

I tried to search the manual but couldn't find anything in Group 23 where the fuel pump removal mentions the skid plate.

I don't have all of the Torx sizes, but its bigger than the 30 and smaller that the 55. I would think its going to be 35, 40, or 45.

Off to the tool store it is.

Skid plate removal is in group 13, page 1216. Refered to in step 5 of the fuel tank removal.
