Default 36mm Oil line wrench

I am going to be replacing the right handside engine cam oil line soon, and I was wondering if anyone has a wrench that will do the job. I see that pelican carries a special 36mm wrench: http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/..._%20Wrench.JPG
Does anyone have something that would make this installation work,or should I buy the wrench?

I thought the cam oil lines were much smaller. A 15 or 17mm, right?

Pari, The cam lines are something like 13 -14 mm. I have the line wrenches you need. I also have a big A$$ crecent wrench and pipe wrench for the big oil line connections if you ever need them.
Did you buy the cam line restrictors? These simply screw into the top of the cam case wher the oil line connects. A simple upgrade while you are there. I learned that you just order the original part and the new ones should superseed the old part number. My idle oil pressure is now about 2-3 bar depending on temp.

Bill, I am pretty sure I ordered it, it looks like a screw with a hole in it right?
Thanks guys, I'll let one of you know when I figure out what tool I will need exactly. Don't I need a 36mm to get this done?

Cool, thanks Bill. I will probably need a hand with it, since I never replaced these before. I'll give you a call on your cell either this evening or tomorrow.
