Allen Screw holds tip on exhaust, it is on the underside, do not remember size but it is metric.

I saw them, tried every single allen I have...doesn't work. This doesn't look normal. They look like rivets.

They are allen screws, I had to buy a full metric set to get one that fit, they're quiet small. But, Allen screws on underside and pull off.

These are not. Apparently the Gen 1 MPE had the tips riveted on. I'm going to have to drill them out.
