Default Missing screws for seat back bumpers

Missing the screws that hold seat back bumpers.
I dont want to just jam a screw in and possibly strip the hole.
What size is the OEM screw that holds the bumper down to the bucket seat bottom.

I don’t have a thread pitch gauge, so this is all I can do. HTH I’m the second owner of my GTO , so pretty sure it’s original.
BTW, I see you’re in central Fla. I have a son in Deland.
