Default pt# for flywheel holding tool?

Anybody know what the part number is for the tool that holds the flywheel for the damper on my 1997 corvette? Is it the same tool for the F body as the vette?

Is the motor in the car, or out?

It's in the car. We Tried to tighten it but it's a pain in the *** on a vette because we had to take out the steering rack but we got it with an impact. I just want to get the correct tool so Im can crank it down like the tech says.

If it's an M6, put in in 4th and put on the parking brake. If its an A4, I think you can put a screwdriver somewhere to stop it from spinning, but I've never done it do I dont know.
