 It is 10/32 (10NF) by 5/8" long. On the "donut ring" get the thickest you can find (at least 1/8"), you might also want to put some silicon on it.

 Does anyone happen to know the bolt size for the 2 bolts that are used between the valve itself and the pipe flange (with the mounting bracket sandwiched in between, photo below)?
The look like maybe 12-24, but I don’t have a tap or die to confirm that ...
It appears as though the leak in mine is caused because the seal between these two has perished, but so has one of the bolts!  Going try replacing it with a small donut ring to see if that cures the issue.
Cheers in advance,
Rick
