[Healeys] Master cylinder-Metric?

Lotus is one of the exceptions as they used metric in their own engines 
from the 907 engine. Do not know if they used metric in the bodies.
Of course a Continental Europe (Renault France) produced engine had 
metric threads. Even long before the war there were very few exceptions 
to that.
Saab used a Triumph engine so I presume that the threads on those 
engines are not metric, however if these were produced in licence by 
Saab they might. Also Volvo may have used some UNF threads I believe.
