2 1/16"
2"=50.8mm
1/16=1.5875mm??
total= 52.3875mm.
i thought 4wd in blackburn rd. sell them. could be wrong??
remove with a chisel and take to a tool shop to size a socket. i have seen one and it looks like a tubesocket if i'mcorrect.

52mm is the size you require.

I have one that is 1/2 inch drive that I cut and lengthend so it fits with the 110cv's I have fitted to later narrow hubs with M/D axle sets.
