Oil gallery plug size?

1 Attachment(s)

What's the thread size for the rear oil gallery plug? I drilled out the brass plug as far as I dare go and I've tried to pick out the remaining but someone must of used some super sealant 'cos I can't shift it. I'm hoping I can pick up the threads and cut the remaining out...

Don't know about rear plug but front plug on 8BA is 3/8-18 NPT that uses a 37/64" drill size.
