FD Brake Hardline Sizes?

Hey all,
I'm running new brakes lines and a proportioning valve in an FD, and I'm having trouble finding information on the size of the various hardlines. Is it 3/16" double/inverted flare all around, or is there 1/4" as well?

5mm tube
Inverted flare
10mm x 1.0 fittings
3/16 tube is close enough to 5mm to use. Fc runs 5mm to back, suspect FD is the same. You can make hybrid lines sae and metric on either end to avoid adapters.
GET A GOOD FLAIRING TOOL

I bought an -AN flare tool and converted everything in the front end with 3/16" stainless line. Best tool investment I think I've ever made. I hated doing the awful double flares before.
