Radiator reservoir screw

Can anyone help me out find out what the screw size/thread pitch is for the screw that secures the radiator reservoir in place. I discovered that mine seem to be missing as I was doing an oil change today. I don't what to be buying random screws at Home Depot to see which one matches. Thanks.

I checked the screw opening with calipers and its probably a 4 or 5 mm diameter screw, coarse thread (should be metric hopefully). Will buy some tomorrow and see which fits.
