I believe that's a 5/16 Allen.
It would be either a 15 mm wrench or a 7mm Allen key.
Metric Allen wrench.

If I recall... the caliper is what holds the brake pad to the rotor ;) So... DEF yes!! YES !!
To change the front brakes on a 2001 Ford Focus, you will need a few essential tools: a jack and jack stands to lift and secure the vehicle, a lug wrench to remove the wheel nuts, a socket set (typically 7mm or 10mm) to detach the caliper, and a C-clamp or brake caliper tool to compress the caliper piston. Additionally, having a brake cleaner and new brake pads will complete the job. Always ensure safety by working on a level surface and using proper safety gear.
Remove caliper mounting bolts and slide caliper off rotor
It takes a 3/8" allen wrench to r & r that caliper bolt.

To replace the front brake pads on a 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora, start by safely lifting the vehicle and removing the front wheels. Use a brake caliper tool or a C-clamp to compress the caliper piston back into the caliper housing. Remove the caliper bolts, take off the caliper, and then remove the old brake pads. Install the new pads in the caliper bracket, reattach the caliper, and ensure everything is tightened properly before putting the wheels back on and lowering the vehicle.
