Male brake fittings to fit a Wilwood MC

This is a long shot I know but I'm wondering if any of the southern guys who might be going to Box Hill tomorrow might happen to have a spare Male brake pipe fitting, I need one to fit into a Wilwood master cylinder but by the time I got to my local motor factors today they were shut and Halfrauds are next to useless!!

I am using Wilwood and I believe the thread in the m/cylinder is NPT. Rally Design keep NPT to metric adapters.

I think you are right Andrew, I've just checked my invoice from Rally Design and it looks as if the feed from the reservoir is 7/16"UNF for the 1/4" pipe and the other 3/8"UNF. the old memory's not what it used to be(and it never was that good)!!

I know it's unlikely but no-one also happenns to have an old flexi brake pipe as I have a mini one but it's about an inch too short, I'm sorting the brakes on my car trailer.
