They are SAE American treads. I think there are variations of pumps depending on year and car or truck. Not sure. There is a tapered lock screw with a lock nut I think. What happened to that tapered screw? Start reading carefully on page 6-14 here. http://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/shop/1954truck/54ctsm0614.htmlScroll down to picture of "tapered bolt". If this is it, it's just a bolt with a tapered nose. Can be ground from a normal bolt. I'm guessing a 3/8-16 X 1 1/2 long. Length does not seem to be critical because a nut locks it after nose goes into something. https://www.lowrider.com/how-to-tech/engine/0904-lrmp-six-cylinder-build/#The AD boys will help from here. I'm guessing too much on an important part.

Size... 7/16 - 14 x 1 3/8 overall.
The length & having the correct size tapered end of the set screw are very important.
The tapered end is there for a reason.
The taper is like an adjustment, only goes in the oil pump hole so far.
It correctly locks the oil pump body in place so it doesn't move.
The lock nut only locks the set screw.
Wolfgang, you should not "Jerry rig" this part.

It just has to have a snout to stick into the pump tube hole and retain it. You can test fit the taper in the hole before installing. You can test after install by pulling on the pump. The length is not super critical because there has to be room for the nut to draw down. If it's too short or too long you will know because you are looking at all the surrounding area. The taper looks to be about 4 threads long and tapers about to the thread root. Just taper it to seat about half way into hole or a tad more. It's not a high tech part and can be visually tested. A LARGE bolt for such a small job because the taper tip needed to be strong. If you find one here or Ebay, all the better. You can see this bolt on Deve's website. Make sure she clears the crankshaft   Thanks to Deve's site. http://devestechnet.com/Home/Project1959235
