My 1993 manual does not list this fastener specifically. Referring to the standard bolt torque spec sheet in the front of the manual, this bolt has 3 hash marks which makes it a 7T. The spec for a 6mm 7T fastener is 9 ft/lb.

The same torque figure from two different manuals, using different reference points.

The ones I have (from an OBD2 motor) have 4 marks, so 8T. The '96 LX450 FSM doesn't have a spec for M6 8T, for 7T lists 8ft/lb.
 
The highlighted figure is for the bolts going from the cylinder head down into the timing cover.

And those are M8, so whole nother kettle of fish.
 
Did we ever get this figured out?

Yes. Re-Read, starting at the beginning. Read ALL the way to the end.

Let me summarize:
P/N 90105-06221
6mm x 24.66mm x 1.0 bolt
The '96 LX450 FSM shows 9ft/lb.



Oh....and don't break off your nipples.

Edited to correct from 22mm to 24.66mm per Beno Onur
