I used 1/8" NPT for the inlet and outlet of my ARB solinoid. I would hope the vent would be the same :p

It is actually 1/8 British Pipe Standard. Damned Aussie ARB making things complicated.
Pretty hard to locate in the US, but some 4x4 shops keep hardware kits in stock.

I know the inlet and outlet is 1/8 BPT. What I need is the pitch size of the vent where the air is vented out when the locker is disengaged. A friend of mine mounted his solenoids in his cab and can't stand the gear oil smell. He wants to find a fitting that will allow him to hook up a hose that he can route to the outside. :)

In case anyone else is interested, here's what an ARB tech told me,
"Arnold,
Well I have learned that it is 5mm, although I couldn't find out what the thread pitch is. I am pretty sure that it is 5mm BSP (British Standard Pipe) We carry a push in fitting with that thread, and you can purchase one directly through us. Then all you would need is a piece of our blue air line and your set. The part number is:
170209 $8.29
If you are interested just give anyone of us here at ARB and we can get one sent out to you. Have a good day."
