1939 Packard 12

Trying to make a tool for tightening and loosening the 12 water pump packing nut. Hard to get to because of the close proximity of the pump walls on around two sides of nut. Tried making one wrench from a closed end wrench. Cut open a small section to clear the shaft, and ground down outer edges to clear pump walls and all it did was to bend open the wrench. Any ideas on what kind of tool was used by Packard? Tried to attach a photo of the wrenches I have tried to make, but would not allow.
Thanks Todd
