Injust used a pluming tool called a boa-constrictor.
It has a rubber strap and a handle. I think it's normally used for removing catch bowls on u bends under sinks!
HTH
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
Please read my ring story:

Might be worth having a look at the Sealey catalogue, they do several filter tools

I used one of these last time but i did not like it the filter box is made of plastic and the boa seams to put strain on one side
