Bought something bigger, cut it down... filed the threads into a taper at the tip and played with it carefully so it didnt cross thread. Thats what I did with our first attempt at a block, when we put an aluminum adapter on the oil pump pad for oil return and PSRU feed.

Later gen used the stock oil return fitting with an AN adapter on it.

You will have a hard time for that. M18 x 2.5 is standard and first choice fine is 18 x 1.5 . You may have to get it made.
