Oil Filter thread size

Hi , does anyone know the thread size for the oil filter bolt that screws into the lower casing.
I need to clean the thread, so want to order a tap to suit

Thanks, but I think that's too small, have been told M20 x1.5 which sounds correct but thought id ask others

philward:
Just measured a spare - its m20 x 1.5

Why not just buy a new bolt ?

My thoughts exactly, with such an engine life critical part, if the thread is damaged, heat and vibration will only make it worse, and the engine would not last long if it started leaking while riding it, if you survive the inevitable accident caused by oil spewing on the road directly in line with the rear wheel. Seen it happen on a 400/4 many years ago.
