Check out that item, if Jamie is correct you need to select 1/2" BSPT x 3/4" (19mm). However I have a feeling that the thread side (1/2" BSPT) would be too big.

19mm is ideal because that is the size of the pipe that comes out of the rocker cover. So there will be no restrictions in the system if you stick to that throughout. However saying that I have used all 19mm pipes and fitted reducers right before the pipes connect to the catch can input/output that are 15mm. Still works fine for me and collects a decent amount of water/oil
