oil feed fitting size in block

QUOTE=BlackSS/SC;2112885][/QUOTE]

Can anybody tell me what size fitting needs go into the blue circle and where you got it. I need to go from whatever thread that is to an -4 AN fitting for oil feed. I have the oil galley plug out and it looks like a straight metric thread that is 12 X 1.75 but all of the metric to AN adapters I find are 12 x 1.5 or 12 x 1.25 it might not even be a 12 mm I am just compairing it to a tap I have in my tool box and they look the same.

Just make sure to then get an 1/8npt adaptor to a -4an. I overlooked this and ended up with a huge leak and missing out on the event I was planning on going to for awhile. You can get both parts from summit racing as well. About $10 for both
