Default Cam chain tensioner gasket replacement time

I have bee tracking down an oil leak which turns out to be multiple leaks and the cam tensioner gasket is one of the culprets. There is no write up in the tech section, can anyone tell me what specialty tool I need to do this job and maybe where to get it.

TIA

Default That link brings up a link with tools from 3243-3366. Is the 3366 what I want?

"BRACKET FOR CHAIN ADJUSTMENT

Used when removing and installing chain adjuster."

Is what it says.

Thanks again
