Metal brake line/fittings size?

Anyone know what size the hard (metal) brake lines and fittings are that run along the rear axle to the wheel cylinders?

The lines are 3/16 and the thread size of the fittings is 3/8-24. When the line next to my tank broke I got a roll of copper-nickel tubing and an assortment of fittings and made my own. You can also get standard length 3/16 steel lines with the fittings attached.
