Default Transmission fitting size at transmission

Long story short, new motor, trans, and stall converter. When I put engine back in I forgot to put the lines from the radiator to bellhousing back in. other than butchering it I decided to put a remote cooler on instead as it probably needs it. Top line at bellhousing goes to top fitting in radiator which would make it the return, Does anyone know the size of the inverted fitting at the bellhousing, (it is also the same size as the line out of the transmission). I need to go get some fittings for the cooler that will arrive in a few days. thanks for the help

two fittings beside bellhousing

They look like 3/8" flare fittings.
