Do you need to know the wrench size to fit the fitting or what size the fitting id is?
I'll go find my 6 oil return hose and measure it for you.

sorry for the confusion... I need the wrench size please. I'm 45 miles to a decent parts store and would like to pick up a wrench before heading home. Thanks for your time.

If you're using original hoses and fittings, 32 and 36 mm open ended wrenches are needed to service the oil lines.

What tank is that. Did you test fit it yet? Think it will be an easy install?

Looks to me as if it's a factory sportomatic tank.

It's just a pic I pulled off the net for a reference. Mine is still in the car.

*I believe it (pic) is a sportomatic tank as per the extra orifices...

I picked up a set of open end wrenches at Harbor freight. http://www.harborfreight.com/15-piece-metr...-set-93668.html They are called "service wrenches". The set has like 21 - 36mm. The quality was adequate to get my oil lines off. set was $49.00 not on sale. They are relatively thin and fit into places they need to to break the lines. You can also easily get a pipe on the ends for LEVERAGE!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)
