Why not stop by your friendly auto parts store, and borrow a couple of these tools to check for the right size? Then buy the one you need… Or buy an entire set that covers the one that you need.

Etorx 10, 12 and 14 will do most jobs. Strongly suggest getting one of those cheap cordless wrenches if you have to replace the oil cooler.
