Default I have a screw loose

I was replacing the distributor rotor on 92 ES300, and lost a screw. The rotor has two screws, Does anyone know if these are metric threads and if so what size. I tried a 6-32 x 1/2 machine thread but it gets tight after a couple of turns.

Don't worry about this screws, they just retain and locate the rotor when the wheel is off, the rotor is held by the wheel and lugs.

Take the other screw and go to an auto parts place and they should help you get the right screw.
