does anyone know :
* the dimensions for the hope hbsp238 bleed nipples pictured and thread
* if they'll work as replacements for bleed port screws on other manufacturers calipers
* whether it matters if dot fluid or mineral oils is used?
thanks

The answer to your last two questions:
2) not interchangeable, nearly all companies use a custom/proprietary port screw
3) the seal material is different for DOT and mineral oil, so yes, it will matter
