97 accord 4 cylinder Problem changing fuel filter

Hello all, I'm working on my 97 accord 4 cyl., and i"m having a hard time
trying to identify what Chilton's manual calls the service bolt or sealing
bolt on the fuel rail.
Which is supposed to relieve the pressure on the fuel system. My problem
is the pictures are vague and the book states that I should use a 12mm box
wrench to loosen the bolt.

As far as I can tell and see there is no 12mm bolt(banjo bolt) to be
found. What I have located is a 17mm size bolt on the drivers side of the
fuel rail. Is this possible the sealing bolt??????
Signed dazed and confused.

Forget about the service bolt, if you leave the car parked overnight the
fuel pressure will drop and you can just remove the fuel filter normally. I
have done this with my 91 Accord many times. Even when you remove the
service bolt under pressure you still need to surround it with a rag to
prevent fuel spraying all over.
