    If you want a threaded mount, you would probably have to remove the nipple, then drill and tap a hole in its place. Then thread in an A/N fitting.

    Otherwise, I've seen AN 'look' sleeves that you put over the hose clamp.

    How do i know what A/N to use though? Is there a way to convert Inchs or MM to what A/N equals?

    The AN size is just the hose size, the fittings that thread in should be NPT sizes.
