Have you put a thread gauge on the threads?
If we know the TPI (imperial) or pitch Metric) the thread can be easily identified.

Hi checked the stud it 25 tpi and .264 diameter. Metric also works as 1.0 thread and 6.82 diameter . I have now put my spare starter motor on so all is good . When I get a nut for the other that will be relegated to the spare
