Or just order the STM line because there is zero confusion that STM 100% uses a 3/8 BSPT fitting.

Here is a brass one that is available through a US seller.

Make sure you use high temp thread sealant. What I hate about NPT/BSPT fittings is that they sometimes decide to leak by themselves, but the evo block has a few of them. It's borderline dark magic.

Ordered the fitting from this seller and it took exactly 1 month for it to arrive and it leaks like crazy. A fine mist of oil sprayed out and made a big mess, I've now got it tightened down as far as it will go and I used permatex sealant on everything to no avail.
