Thread size hydraulic hose VP SX drive

[Wanna Tango]

Does anyone know the size and thread of the end of the hydraulic hose that’s connected to the outdrive cylinders?
Volvo penta SX-M year 2000

TiA!

On my 2005 SX-M the thread is 7/16-20

As a follow up, if you are looking to clean up the threads in the aluminum cylinders or manifold block, suggest using a thread chaser vs. a bottom tap. A tap, unless started exactly following the existing threads will cut new threads and probably destroy the part. A chaser is as it sounds, will chase after the existing threads and clean them up in the process. Same process: lots of oil and back and forth.
Earlier this year when I had this issue Lou C recommended a chaser and was glad he did. Here is a picture of them side by side. And here is a post (link) about cleaning up these treads in a difficult place (manifold block) without removing the sterndrive.

Oh wow. Thanks for that information. I have the tap but I think it would be safer to use a Chaser. Will need to get one of those.
Thanks again for the follow up @ESGWheel.
