Default O2 Sensor thread size?

Anyone know what the thread size is on the O2 sensor? I somehow manager to gall the bung on my header and need to get a thread chaser.
TIA

It's metric and I believe 17 mm.

I had to chase the threads on the oxygen sensor bung after welding it in. Napa had a oxygen sensor thread chaser in stock for about $10.

It's the same thread as the big spark plugs (18mm). If you have trouble finding an O2 sensor thread chaser you can use a spark plug chaser.
