    Poston oil pan screw

    Good evening. I just purchased a GS400 with a 400 engine. The engine was refreshed about 800 miles ago. I do have a minor leak at the front of the Poston oil pan. Unfortunately I am unable to get any hex bit as the screw is at an angle against the oil pan. I tried ball hex Allen bit but would not grip. Any suggestions on which tool to use in order to retorque the two front screws? See attached Picture. Thanks

    a "wobble" extension allows the socket to pivot, should be available from any decent tool supplier
