I bought generic 3/8 bolt from bandq  and it was too big, could this be down to the thread?

Sorry, I gave you a bum steer, the threads in the block are actually 3/8" UNC.

 

I don't know what the thread type on a 'generic' 3/8" Bolt would be, so I can't offer much there.

 

Got a pic?

 

3/8" UNC Bolts or for that matter you'd get away with BSW for this, shouldn't be too had to find.
