Okay, I may have to extract foot from mouth here.

All MGA brake bleed nipples are same part number for drum and disc 
brakes, 3/8-24-UNF thread and should be 7/16-inch wrench size.

The bleed nipple for clutch slave cylinder is a different part 
number, so may well be 7/16-20-UNF thread.  It is definitely the same 
clutch slave cylinder for MGB and MGA (not Twin Cam).
