I don't know where we got 10 Nm. I was reading TIS 11 31 505 last night (Adjusting camshaft timing (S54)), and 10 Nm (-90°) is the pretension torque. The final torque is 14 Nm.

I'm going to buy the air hose adapter just to round out the tool set. I was thinking I could just jam the rubber cone attachment on my air blaster into the hole, but that'll make it a 3 handed operation.
