Backing wrench size for oil gauge bourdon tube.

I'm installing a nice working temp/fuel/oil gauge in my instrument cluster. Question: the oil pressure line is a 10 mm but I can't figure out what size of wrench to use to hold the bourdon tube steady while I tighten the oil pressure gauge hose to the back of the cluster. Obviously I do not want to break or crack another bourdon tube.....any oneknow the wrench size?

this is on the 1984 300DT.
