FUEL line thread from firewall?

I am wondering what thread the male flare fitting is right off the firewall going to the hose that connects to the fuel rail.

It seems to be a 1/4 NPT, because thats what fits into the female part, but a female 1/4 NPT does not fit into the male thread on the car. Is it a metric bastard thread?



I am hooking up a fuel pressure gauge, and would like to tap into that part, I am not going to cut the hose!

cut the hose, it's no big deal. You need this adapter for like $10 in the first picture, the red one.
