The connector is 3/8 NPT (18 TPI) on the outside for half it's length and is 11/16" hexagonal for the rest. It is internally threaded to take a 5/16" flared tube fitting/nipple.

Vintage Power Wagons list that part as :- Brake Master Cylinder Outlet Nipple (ORD # 7351252) Part # 12:391441
Surely one of the European dealers would be able to supply one of these even if a takeout.

Jeepest has them also https://jeepest.com/gb/brakeshand-brake ... &results=1 I've used both companies in the past and will now only use Jeep-Dodge-GMC if Jeepest don't have the parts I need. Hope this helps
