Default Brake Hose Size

Just thinking ahead ............ one of my winter jobs will be to remove all four brake calipers for a clean / paint etc, plus renewing seals etc.
As they will be off for some time, I intend to buy some plastic caps & plugs (female for the end of the flexible pipe and male for the hole in the calipers) and just wondered if anyone knew what size to get (and are front and rear the same size ?)
Not Brembo - just the "standard" XK8 - 1997 - brakes.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
David.

Brake pipe hose is M10 X 1 and for the rear it is a banjo bolt, again M10 X1
When you refit the rear, new copper washers should be fitted.
