Default Model A Fuel Tank Tap outlet thread size???

I'm fitting a new original Ford style solid brass fuel tap as supplied by Mac's etc into the base of my 1929 model 'a' dash fuel tank. I am trying to find someone who can help tell me the thread size for the outlet of the tap itself not the tank!!! Any help would be great.
I am trying to identify it but could do with some expert advise..........

The tap outlet is a flared fitting - the nut on it is 5/8"X18 TPI. (5/8 UNF.)
Hope that is what you need.
