1/8" Male NPT X 3/8" hose for the 1962-63 221/260/289 Ford pump inlet.
EelcoŽ offered a family of die cast with their logo fittings based on a single die casting pattern. Raw castings could be machined for different sizes of tapered male pipe threads, straight male pipe threads, or inverted male flare inlet.
Shelby American used two sizes of Eelco male national pipe taper X 3/8" hose fittings. 1/8" MNPT for Cobra fuel pumps, 1/4" MNPT for a drain line in CSX2287 if memory serves, and the 1/4" in very late 427 Cobras for fuel pumps. At least one version of "other" has enough metal left to be reworked to an 1/8" MNPT inlet.
