Living in the UK I sort of forgot OB. But fact is my question was whether it was BSF or CEI. BSF is 55 degree and I thought CEI was 60. As I needed a tap wanted to get the correct one.
If it is an American cam (Megacycle) it would be 1/4-28. Most EI kits come with both bolts for the magnet pickup, based on what cam you have in your bike.

Well problem is I have a nice array of possible bolts none of which will play ball. Next is to have at it with a starter BSF tap. The bolt that came
out is clearly not the correct one. Ill report back...
Reporting back: DPO apparently buggered the threads or at least the first few. I had at it with a starter tap and was fortunate enough to get it in.
Second tap cut all the way down. The final tap wasnt happy about going in past the first thread so I wisely quit whilst ahead. A new bolt went in
well and although slightly loose in the early threads it is fine as you go deeper. So solution is to use a longer bolt and Im a winner.
Of course the bonus was I didnt even have to take off the timing cover!
Huzzah!
we really dump on the DPO's, but some day in the future we'll be the DPO..... I sure hope i didn't screw anything.... at least its running nice and no leaks
