What is the thread size of the speedo bush that hold the worm drive in, please? The hub has been at the powder coaters and the threads are clogged with paint and it's hard.

A quick look in my notebook shows I previously measured one as M16 x 1.5mm.

the side casing plug hole is M16 x 1.5, as i had to buy a tap recently fo clear the threds on one.
im positive the speedo drivebush is M14 x 1.5 as i purchased a tap to clear the threads after powder coating a hub, many years ago.
The "nut" that screws onto it is M12 x 1.00mm.
