It depends - a big 27mm generally will fit, but some have casting marks which won't clear the leak off nipples.

Halfords ones it depends who they're using to make the sockets these days, they used to fit, but I've a suspicion I've heard someone say they bought one and it didn't fit - so essentially - it's a stab in the dark. If it doesn't fit, you'll just have to take it back!

I bought a 27mm deep socket and an injector socket when I took some off. Injector one worked fine and returned the unused one.
#15
I cut a socket in half and welded a bit of handrail tube between it

I had a Draper one too, was cheap and does the job.
