No matter how many frames you have, the bottle mounts are all m5x0.8.
It's not uncommon for people that are not mechanically inclined to confuse an Allen bolt's threading with the Allen wrench used on the head.
Here is a chart to help him understand: <https:// i.imgur.com/KJmDJc2.png>
It's possible that there are specialized M5 Allen head bolts that don't use a 4mm Allen key but personally I've never seen one since there would be no point in it.
Current new bicycles ship with standard DIN 912 (4mm key) and also ULS screws with 3mm and also 'bicycle parts' similar to a 912 but with 5mm heads.
