Brakes are wierd , I think you will find it to be 7mm. I have a disc brake tool kit I bought cheap at autozone and it has all of the unusual allen wrenches for brakes as well as a piston compressor.

Yup, the brakes for the standard XK8 were the same as for the XJ8, a 7mm will do.
By the way, welcome to the forum, we don't see XK8's here every day .

I'm guessing this is an oil leak
