Default Seeking help with adapter fittings

I'm installing a C5 master cylinder in my 69 and I need adapters for the ports.

The front port is a 12mm / 1.0 thread ( I found an adapter at napa )

The rear port is a 12mm / 1.5 thread ???????

So far the only thing I have found is a banjo bolt that will fit.

The Napa part converts the port to 3/8 x 24 I.F.

What I would really like is adapters to convert to AN, I just bought this nice Rigid flare tool and would love AN fittings throughout the brake system. I have sourced Earls, Russell, Weatherhead, Pegasus, posted at corvetteforum, pro-touring, I refuse to give up, any help no matter how small will be greatly appreciated.

Eureka!! I found them while using Google to search for an online calculator of all things.

Here's the 411 :

C5 Master

Front port / rear brakes 12 x 1.0 metric bubble

Rear port / front brakes 12 x 1.5 metric bubble

Click on the first one for info on AN to metric fittings, $8.95 ea.
