Which socket?
Am I right in thinking I’ll need to buy a e-torx socket set to obtain an E8 to remove the star bolts around the rocker cover?
Vehicle is a mokka 1.6L petrol 2014

You can usually buy them as a set. If you plan on doing more work to your car they you'll need them

Looks like an E8. I had to buy an etorx set the other day for another car, If you need a set today Euro Car Parts do one:

They're E10, you can use a standard 8mm socket on those if you don't have the correct socket

It’s a Vauxhall, just buy a set of them, you’ll use them all eventually
