All medium/big block Saitos use the same breather thread.

Need a metric bolt? 5 x the price of the Imperial crap IF you can find one..
Any well stocked LHS should have small metric taps/drills.

Don't know what drugs your computer is on, but mine opens to a 13 page PDF, last page has the tap thread pitches, and there is only one for the 5mm tap. Unlike SAE, metric pretty much sticks to single pitches, where there could be fine and coarse pitch threads for small taps. 10-32, 10-24, etc.

LOL here's what I got on page 13 LOL,,, computers
STARTING The FS-120S3 is not fitted with manual choke controls, as they are intended for use with an electric starter only. A high-torque electric starter not only makes starting the engine much easier, it dispenses with the need for a choke valve by turning the engine over fast enough to cause the fuel pump to prime the cylinder automatically. Starting procedure is as follows:
Check that the current to the glowplug is switched off. Check that the polarity of the starter battery leads rotates the engine counter-clockwise when viewed from the front. Open the needle-valve 3-3.5 turns from the fully closed position and temporarily set the throttle in the fully open
