Default hydraulic tool?

I am pulling the transmission out to change the clutch. This is my first time doing one of these jobs so I need a tool to pull out the hydraulic connection. Can some one tell me how the fitting works and maybe a picture of a tool for it or where to get it. I went to my local advanced auto and the guy didnt know what I needed.
thanks guys

the GM tool is just a flat peice of metal with a U-shaped notch in on end.
To get it off easily just crack the bleeder valve, Then use 2 flat blade screwdrivers to push the white collar on the fitting into the fitting( kind of a reverse air fitting) the collar releases the locking tabs and then the two parts will seperate. I have been able to do it with my fingers if the bleeder is open.
Also open the bleeder when reconnecting and it is much easier
