Thanks in advance
It will probably be a 14mm hex but yes - that's most likely the one you want.

Fill to spill

Though I'd go for a drain and fill with Kroon DEXRON II if I were you.

Drain - same size Allen head screw but on the underside.

Make sure the fill comes out first before you drain though!
