Oil Cooler Lines, What Size?
What size wrench(socket) is the perfect fit for the rear oil cooler line(near the back of the block on the right side of the engine[facing the car])? What size is the perfect fit on the oil cooler line on the front cover? I'm asking because my largest is 21mm and I don't want to waste any money buying the wrong size. Thanks in advance.

23mm for the rear.For the front cover I believe you need a 21mm and a 23mm wrench.
