Fuel regulator: Need help!

Okay, so, I got my holley regulator in the mail (the diaphragm bypass model that will work with the factory FI pump), but one of the few things not covered in this section is...what NPTs do i need to use? it has 3 ports which appear to be 3/8" (or 5/8", cant remember which and I'm away from my bin o parts atm), but I'm at a complete loss as to what adapters I need to use to make it work properly with the factory fuel lines. Also, is there any sort of sealant I need to use to seal the threads?

I've been hunting thru summit and jegs but cant find what I need...maybe I'm just not looking in the right places. Any links or even the correct name/size fitting would be GREATLY appreciated.

This is the regulator I currently have, it apparently will function just as the suggested mallory will. http://www.jegs.com/i/Holley/510/12-803BP/10002/-1

Thanks in advance,

J.
