Just thread in a 7/16 headed bolt and mark the thread length, then add the width of the banjo fitting and take a tiny bit off so that the thread doesn't bottom out and cause the banjo to not seal properly

Well, unless he knows what it looks like or has a die around to check the thread size, 7/16 head is the simplest form of easy identification *tongue*

Oh and obviously make sure it's fine threaded, not course threaded, forgot to add that if UNF didn't give it away.

A 7/16 bolt is 1/4 UNF.

3/8 thread bolt is 9/16 AF (across flats).

I'm not going to be much use here but I can't remember which I used. There is a short or a long thread version in the single banjo. I had the same decission to make. I bought both as they were so cheep anyway.

Just get a banjo bolt and cut it down to suit. Run it in without the hose and see where it bottoms out.
