Correct, 1/8 Britt pipe.
I have dressed the threads to 1/8 NPT in the past.

Get a 1/8 NPT tap and rethread it, or get a 1/8th NPT to 1/8 BSP adapter. 1/8 NPT is 27 TPI and 1/8 BSP is 28 TPI.
Fasteddy's advice is occasionally sound...

Do you have British straight pipe or British taper pipe?
These are taper pipe. Straight will not work.
