Subject: [Mgs] Whitworth Flare Nut Wrench?

Anyone ever seen a source for Whitworth flare nut wrenches?  Regular
whitworth wrenches are all over ebay, but not flare nut wrenches.  Thinking
perhaps the brits have another word for flare nut wrench and that's why I
can't find them?
I have an old XJS that has Whitworth brass compression fittings in the fuel
system.  The brass nut rounds off before the ferrule has a chance to deform
the tube.  I've elminated most of these stupid compression fittings, but
there are two into the gas tank that cannot be removed without welding the
tank.
