Default Oil return bung thread size

I have an oil return bung screwed in to my zetec turbo that i'm lead to believe came from an rs turbo. Does anybody know the correct thread size of the end that sits in the block as i'm looking at getting a return made up using aeroquip fittings.

Cheers

Steve

Cheers, i thought the fiesta one had a screw for the return pipe? Mine is smooth for the part that the hose clamps on to but the end going in to the block is threaded as some of it is exposed.

The frst T2 one isn't threaded into the block, its a press fit, with threads on the external side for the turbo return pipe to screw on.
the escort T3 stub is press in and push on with no threads on either end.

Well i have no idea what is fitted to my car then I was told it was an rs turbo plug, my receipts say rs turbo oil return plug. Here are a few pics if it helps, the braided hose is pushed on to the smooth end.







Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
