I appreciated everyone's help on finding right fitting for my master
cylinders.

I wanted to give a small update.  The fitting on mine was a metric M10x1
fitting.  There was no taper, so it wasn't NPT.  With a little more
examination, the master cylinder has an inverted flare brass fitting on
the inside of the mount.  I purchased an M10x1 to AN3 adapter that had
an inverted flare on the metric side.  It threaded perfectly and seated
nicely.  No liquid teflon necessary.

FYI,
