So, you want to run a -12 line to that port also. A 1/2 pipe size will typically have an ID of about 0.840-2(.109)= 0.622". Schedule 40 pipe, 0.109" wall thickness. http://www.engineersedge.com/pipe_schedules.htm A fitting may have smaller ID, depends. AN hose can have different ID depending on brand, style, etc. AN-12 hose is roughly 0.688" ID, and again the fittings may have smaller ID.
