1985 12a Stock Temp Sensor Thread Size?
Does anyone know the thread size/pitch for the STOCK coolant temperature sensor under the oil filter pedestal on a 1985 12a? For example these:

There are two different sensors depending on if the engine has a reman iron or not. Reference here: https://www.mazdatrix.com/79-85Electrical-Engine.htm
Not sure of the thread pitch.
