Brass fitting for option B

Rather than pay 4$ plus 12$ shipping at CED, anyone know the size of the brass fitting to put in the stock h/e for the bleeder line so I can pick one up at home depot?

I think it's 1/4 or 1/8 NPT for the threads.

I wanna say that it was 1/8NPT because if I remember right I had to get a 1/8 NPT to 1/4 NPT, then 1/4NPT elbow that went to 1/4" BARB. It was a PITA and wish I just would have bought the parts from CED.

Ion takes a 90 deg 1/8 npt with a 1/4 barb fitting, but Cobalt takes a straight 1/8 npt with a 1/4 barb fitting more room on the cobalt as it has a simpler front radiator rail.
