Here is the Bicycle Research tool from California. There are other brands of similar design. Back during "the boom" shops sold the Cyclo tool without guide ring for use in Regina removal. Not recommended. The Campag and the DuraAce tools also have the guide ring and are a good fit on these notched Regina gear block bodies.
Great advice! I will wait until I find the right tool and thanks for the pictures of them.
