How to turn crank to TDC?

I know its on the passenger side, you open up the little compartment... but size socket do you need? I know to take the cam gear cover off and and meet the notches together but just need to know the size of the socket needed to do so. Thanks.

I was watching a video on changing cams. In it the guy said put the car in third gear, and while in front of the car, roll it till the timing mark lines up, or whatever you have to do, to get it to TDC. No tools needed. Of course you will have to have the timing cover removed. Hope that helps.
