Hydro lock

I have a 1976 Ford Lehman 120 which appears to be hydro locked. The folks at American Diesel recommended that I remove the transmission to verify that the eight springs on the plate were there and not wedged behind the bell housing. All good. Next I was instructed to remove the fuel injectors and spray wd 40 into the holes they came out of. I am in the process of doing this step now. My manual shows the removal being done using a "special fuel injector removal tool." There is no part number for this tool and I can't seem to find one. Does anyone know where to get this tool?
Thank You

I was having such a difficult time getting the number 6 injector out that I thought a tool must be necessary. I have gotten it out and found that the difficulty was caused by the cylinder being completely filled with water. The rest popped out with ease.
Thanks
