Default need help with tool size for slave cylinder

So apparently yesterday my GSR clutch pedal just stopped working and it feels like there is no pressure... i've searched and realized that there has been people with the same problem, I just had the clutch replaced a month ago and i was driving it fine but i let my uncle borrow it and something happened. Looking at the thread below that shows you how to remove the slave cylinder. What is hte size wrench i will need to do a bleeding process. There is no fluid in the small resevoir so im going to try bleeding the system since i see no leaks anywhere, no leaks on lines, no leaks near the resevoir or slave cylinder and no leaks near the pedal. I am referring to the last picture that has the bleeder screw. Need to know correct wrench size so i can go buy it.

Thanks

5/16" is slightly smaller than 8mm. If it's metric, use metric-sized tools.

It's recommended that you use a flare nut wrench (aka pipe or line wrench) with fittings like that to avoid rounding off the corners.

Otherwise down the road you'll have to resort to the allmighty "vise grips"
