Default Nipples

I fitted my new clutch to my 2001 bugeye wrx today and while it was on my friends ramp with the front wheels off I tried to bleed the brakes. It turns out both front nipples are rounded.

What size are they and where can I get new ones?

Will molegrips get them off?

Cheers,

Great,

Can you send me a price for 2?

Also I need a prodrive exhaust sized gasket if you have them?

Cheers,

Dan
