I normally have a set of spanners or sockets as necessary and it's whichever one fits? !
Could be 10mm? Mine is I think but that's a 2L 4-cyl of course.
Edit: yes according to a900

Thanks guys i thought it was 10mm just needed to check.
My dad did have a full set but i got it out to clean engine and it sort of dropped into a gap and now its part of a 24v 
I will try to put some photos up saturday night of engine before and after so you can see if its done well enough
