Oil pan drain my plug threads? Size for a Fumoto?

I am considering a Fumoto 14x1.5mm oil drain plug installation on my L400. However, I don't want to pull the plug to measure the threads.
A Google search suggested that 14X1.5mm may work for the S2, is it the same for the S1? Is that size correct?

On my van I can confirm that the drain plug is a 14mm x 1.5 thread.

Perfect! I can swap it out during my next oil change.

Looks like the F-106 series fits. Seems the letters after that like S or N refer to the type of end on the drain valve, so for the Delica L400 you would want the Fumoto F-106.
I would bet you also want a skid plate if offroad and I have heard of people using a zap strap around the valve as extra protection from the lever getting triggered.
