Running 5 plugs now instead of 4 200

IIRC, the thread is 3/4-inch x 16 threads/inch. Possibly the only non-metric thread on the engine by the time production ended?

The proper nut shouldn't be hard to find in a decent hardware or nut&bolt shop, and easier to weld onto the pan than a cut up oil filter baseplate. Take the pan plug with you to confirm threads when you go shopping.
