Determining if it is straight threads is first principles. Go to the junk drawer and see what nut spins onto the thing.

Using a pipe thread on a high pressure system with a banjo bolt doesn't seem ideal because if it bottoms before achieving clamping force the thing will leak and if it clamps before sufficient interference it will strip.

However, anything is possible as the V-12 used a banjo bolt on the anti-flood and a screwball Packard specific pipe thread to boot. But that was a low pressure situation.

As well, who knows what kind of crap is being sold these days. I had to order a part for a piece of equipment and there are programs like Junkazon that will take your search number and plug it into any thing they have in a storage unit somewhere. Management didn't like the price of the OEM specification part I found from a reputable vender so they went with a Wal-Mart drop shipped item. I told them they could get one even cheaper on Junkazon but who knows what piece of garbage they will get. My neighbor bought a new Toyota after having all kinds of problems with bad starters on her Jeep. I didn't have the heart to tell her you have to cough up top dollar for parts from the dealer because the aftermarket is full of junk. And Chrysler has the worst markup over the aftermarket.

The world in in a race to the bottom. The quality control engineers have all been fired and industry is in liquidation mode.
