Steve : IIRC this socket was commonly sold as a one-off for Mini drive shaft nuts and is probably more easily traced as that . As stated, however, it is 1 & 5/16 AF

Confirmed. I was looking for one last week but could only find it in 3/4" drive. If anyone finds one in 1/2" drive please let me know.

Yes I know I can use a convertor but it gets a little close to the picture frame
