Default 1940 Deluxe battery bracket firewall bolt- what size/thread pitch?

I am missing the firewall bolt that goes through the L-shaped bracket- does anyone know what size and thread pitch it is? I have tried several bolts from the hardware bucket but so far no luck. Drake has the bracket but no mention of the bolt itself.

Hi Everyone, JSeery has it correct. S2 is a finish on the fastener.

Because Kube is into restoring to factory new condition, and judging cars to that standard, he included the correct finish on the fastener with his info.
