The bleeder valves for brakes is 10mm and the clutch is 8mm.  Brakes can be bled with a short wrench, but the clutch valve is in a very confined area.  I bought a specialty wrench with 8 and 10 mm ends:

That's strange.  My brake bleeders are 11mm.  Nice tip on the clutch bleeder wrench.

                 FYI - a couple updates on some tools.

Found a great source for the special clutch 8mm bleed tool, much cheaper than Snap-On.  https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/BK_7769044?impressionRank=1

 

As for the very difficult 3/4" nut on back side of rotor drive pegs on each wheel, I found a nice alternative that works great in place of special bend open wrench shown above.  Just use 3/4" old style spark plug socket as they are thin walled and fit well.
