You'd have to know my buddy, a superb hunter and tracker, a fine shot and a marvelous Chef, but not a tech guy. Thanks, though!
It really doesn't take much tech to mic the major diameter (OD), or use a pitch gauge to match threads. Although a magnifying glass might be needed to see the blasted thing.

Thread pitch gauges are inexpensive. With a set, a micrometer, and access to a thread size chart you can get close enough since there are only a couple of standard sizes. Heck, might be able to get by with just the thread pitch gauges.

Right tasty! Marinate in olive oil, lemon, garlic, rosemary, onion, and red wine, then grilled.
It's also,as @Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 pointed out, a good alternative to "capon" for describing certain denizens of Sacramento and DC.
On a related word, look up the verb "tup." Gives a whole new meaning to Tupperware.

The first photo provides insight into their meticulous process, showcasing how they would design and create patches to repair damaged aircraft. These patches were essential for ensuring that aircraft could return to combat operations swiftly, highlighting the ingenuity and dedication of the maintenance crews who played a vital yet often overlooked role in the war effort.
In the second photo, you can see ground personnel, specifically skilled sheet metal mechanics, hard at work repairing bullet impacts on a Chance Vought F4U Corsair at Bougainville Airfield in the Solomon Islands, circa 1944. This scene captures a critical aspect of the Pacific Front during World War II, where maintaining aircraft readiness was paramount.

The Niantic anchored in Yerba Buena Cove. Later - as there were few buildings in San Francisco - her owners dragged her onto the mudflats to turn her into a storage and auction house for imported goods plus build a hotel on her deck. Today her historic site is beside the Transamerica Pyramid.- 4
