    There may be some Selectric service material at
http://site.xavier.edu/polt/typewriters/tw-manuals.html
    I am pretty sure I have a tool list but will have to look through 
the stuff on my computer to find it. If I do I will send it too you.
    Bristol sockets are used on many set screws. They take greater 
torque than Allen head screws and have less tendency to cam out when 
power tools are used. Torx screws are a newer type designed for the same 
applications. In many military manuals Bristol is spelled Bristow, a 
common mis-pronunciation.

Did IBM have a bulletin describing their service tools? I've seen one for Teletypes floating around, would be useful to have the same.
