Couple options

The ol' bic pen trick may work

- get a hard plastic bic pen, empty it hold the tip under fire and melt it then jam it in the hole and let it cool


Bad *** hardware store may have those drivers as well, they may be under "security bits"

He's looking for what's classified under a security bit.
