He doesnt say whether it is A4 or A2... In the absence of him saying, I would guess the latter. Do you know?

 

[simonfraser]

as long as it does not show major rust stains, either, a2 or a4.
load not 100% critical as there are too many screws holding the fitting up as it is.

If you don’t want rust stains use A4 (306).

Seascrew have a very good online catalogue and the guys on the end of the phone know what they are talking about. They will also post 1st class so you get it the following day if you order before 14:00 ‘ish ..... no connection, just happy with their service.
