CV boot clamps -- what size? S80

I've noticed a little grease coming out of my inner CV boots, the side closest to the trans with the big clamp. The boots themselves are still good, no tears or holes, but I guess after 130K miles the clamps have loosened up just a bit to let some of the grease escape. So I want to replace the clamps with new ones.

Does anyone know the exact size (diameter) of the clamps I need to get? The type of clamp is called a "keystone" clamp, the kind you crimp with special pliers to tighten. A picture of a keystone clamp can be seen at:

This is for a 2001 S80 non-turbo.

Thanks!
