MG TD TF 1500 - SU Jet Wrench

Among the seveeral magical mystery items that were packed in the tool box and behind the seats when I acquired my TD were the little wrench and the "vintage" cup holder shown below. I haven't figured out a good place to hang the cup holder and, anyway, our open container laws are very stiff so it sits on the shelf.

The wrench is the shape of the SU jet wrench shown on Moss page A-37 (386-401) but the span is 0.600" as indicated for 386-400. The stamping on the wrench is "SU AUD 2693." I tried to see if it fit my carbs but the light was bad, I had a drink in one hand and I really didn't know which gizmo it was suposed to turn so I failed. Based on the little bit of documentation I got with the TD, I'm guessing PO got this wrench around 1974. Is this supposed to fit the jet adjusting nut (Moss page 10, 370-400)?

Thanks.
