Not sure off the top of my head  ??? if none of the XBR/GB experts gets back to you before then I'll try to have a look tomorrow.
Good luck anyway, it's a standard size iirc so shouldn't be *too* bad!

Its a 12mm plug.
12mm in this case refers to the thread size.
Infact you will find it has an 18mm Hex.

I have found a proper socket doesnt fit as there is not enough room,a Box spanner is required.
