yeah Im pretty sure they are metric (Germany) I did replace one with a larger bolt type machined screw, I think Im going to try that with the one that is leaking.

Re: fuel sender is leaking....
Yup check for any surface imperfections on the tank and check all the threads on the tank and bolts. Then what I do is use lock tight on the bolts. DO NOT use the red stuff. I think it is green that is the lowest holding strength, blue is probably ok as well. This will not only help to seal up the threads a little but also keep the galvanic corrosion from happening btwn your bolts and tank. Hope that helps
