Probably 8-32. Nom dia is .164”, and most screws are sized slightly smaller than that.

The diameter of the screws is 0.159 inches and have about 30 threads per inch (they are hard to count) I have many of the screws in my radom screw jar but none in their original packaging so I don't know their size. But they are standard american screws.
