Default Fuel Pump Fitting Needed

On the bottom of my GM 41240 Fuel Pump, the square outlet needs a 90 degree elbow fitting for the new carb-to-pump fuel line to fit.

I believe it's a standard 1/8" pipe thread on the elbow's pump side.

Does anyone here know offhand what the size of the elbow's flare fitting is, that the carburetor fuel line attaches to? I just want to know what to buy at the store.

Thanks in advance.

Steve
