Minispares list the bleed nipple for the clutch slave cylinder (Verto) as being the same as the front brake calipers which clearly is incorrect. Can anyone tell me what the correct size is?

Yes, they are the same as the Disc Brake Bleed Nipple - 3/8" UNF.

Just measure it. It’ll be whatever diameter it is in unf. Although stock is 3/8”.

Probably an aftermarket slave cylinder.

Doh, so I've probably gone to lots of trouble refurbishing an aftermarket one when I thought it was an original!
