Default 317 coolant sensor options

Ok, the coolant sensor from my 243s is too small for the mount holes on either of the 317s I just installed. Research and part stores tell me it should.... But reality says, No. The sensor is barely too small, so the only other sensor available is way too big. So..... Is there another place I can mount this sensor??? Or if someone knows a magic way to make this one fit in the 317.
Thanks

They should all be a 12mm threaded sensor. You sure threads in your heads aren't just stripped by chance?

They have threads bc they were both capped off. Maybe they have been redrilled and rapped at some point..... So would u know of another place on the motor the sensor could b installed???
