76 cb750 front brake caliper

Can anyone confirm the thread on the bleed and brake line into the caliper is 10x1.25? Can't seem to find these numbers.

Now I know why it was stripped by the PO. Bought a new outer caliper piece and  tried finding a bleed screw to fit today and couldn't. Then when I went to hook it up to the existing brake line it would thread in. Turns out the brake line is something like 10x1.0 so I will have to order that too. Thanks.

I think it may be common for these to be stripped since they sell 'HELP! kits' at every auto store with many sizes of bleeder screws available except m10x1.25, more common to see m10x1.00 or m10x1.5 in auto stores.
