Does anyone know what the proper fitting is? I imagine it's some sort of specialty NPT with a pin in the middle, but I don't know how to even start searching.

It's bigger than a fitting for a tire valve, so I know it's not the same. Does anyone know the size?

Thanks for any help, I used the search function as far as I could, but couldn't find the answer to that question. And if anyone has thoughts on where I can plug into the intake plenum for a simple vacuum test (as opposed to a crankcase test), that would be really helpful as well.
It is an M12 adapter if memory serves. You need a $9 Actron adapter PN: 180-000-1299, Right Angle Large Schrader Adapter.
