2 sturdy old fashioned "church keys" substitute well for the factory tool. The thicker the better, and it's best to use the hardest ones you can find. Be sure to use bolts other than the 3 you want to use for reinstalling the fan. The ends are apt to get chingered up. As others have pointed out, be sure to replace the o-ring as well as the seal. It'll leak if you don't.
