Ford Pinto inlet manifold take off threads?

Can anyone tell me what thread the inlet manifold take offs are on a standard Ford Pinto. i.e. the coolant, breather, vacuum etc?

I'm looking to blank off a couple of unused holes with bolts to tidy things up.

Cheers

If you still have the take off's either weld them up or put a bit of pipe on the end with a bolt up the end and a jubilee clip round. Thats what I did anyway apart from one where I got a rover sump plug which was perfect, pictures in my gallery, link below.

I'm using the hose/bolt/Jubilee clip method at the moment, but really want to tidy things up in the engine bay. Useful tip on the Rover sump plug though - any idea what model/year it came from?

No sorry, it's was a shop in Harrogate they just had them in a tray of old stock and I just went through.
