Just bought the nice shiny stainless domed one but need to know which wrench to put to it. Also the bigger one , the nut just before the timing cover. Don't want to have a wrench slip here. :)

My head is spinning. Ummmm. British confusion.

Measure the hexagons, select the appropriate spanners.
What is there to get confused about?

The wrench/spanner that fits is the correct one to use.
 
Measured and Chart referenced. The Dome nut shows 1/2 W ; 9/16 BSF. The larger main body one shows 5/8 W ; 11/16 BSF. I have neither of these med/large wrenches. 23 and 28 mm seem very close.

28 mm works for me on the relief valve body (the larger) as I do not have a 5/8W either.

Slick
