Petrol tank attachment threads

Does anyone know what the size and the thread in a TA's petrol tank
fittings are?
I am replacing the fuel lines together with the corroded fuel line
adaptors which fit into the threaded tank orifices, but the new
replacement fittings are not compatible, either in diameter or
apparently in thread.
I would be happy to re-tap the tank if I knew what the thread on the
new fittings are and if I were able to find the correct tap. The
suppliers of the new fittings are unable to help with the needed info
and if any owner reading this can help, I shall be most grateful.

Told:
The thread size for the T-ABC fuel tank fittings is 3/8 BSP (
British Standard Pipe).
