15NM if memory serves correctly, but DO NOT tighten the sump until it's mated with the gearbox - there's a lot of play in the position of it and trying to tighten it up to the gearbox when it's been inadvertantly tighened down leaving a gap between the two means bye bye sump.
Also make sure it and the bolts are as clean as a whistle, or you could crack it around the bolt seats.
Proceed with caution.
