14mm...$nap On has them, but I bought a hex key from Grainger for cheap and made a tool by cutting a piece of it off and using a glue gun and a 1/2" drive 14mm socket. There was a thread on here a while ago where someone bought a set from Autozone or Advanced for a great price.

U can find them every now and then at Vatozone, they come 3 in a pack. But they RARELY have them.

Snap on is expensive. Either borrow a buddies or make one like others have said.

You can buy a "L" shaped 14mm hex, cut it and jam part of it into a socket.

dont buy a snap on 14mm allen key socket.......especially for a one time use thing. buy the cheapest no-name 14mm tool you can to get those plugs out....they are kinda tight so get read for some swearing.

i used the 14 mm allen on a 1/2" socket from autozone. i turned that olug into a 12 point before it came out. Had the impact on it forever. Turned the pressure up to 120 psi, and it still was a pain in the dick.

Goto Harbor Freight by ICC's house. You're going to have fun getting those plugs out if the engine is in the car. It took me 15 minutes for the driver side plug and 10 minutes for the passenger side plug. White knuckles after too

got mine from autozone too.they kept them in the aisle with the sockets if that helps. mine were very easy to take out, guess i got lucky (although i did it with the engine out of the car which probably makes it easier)
