Best probability is the screw thread will be metric.

If you have an identical shoulder screw from another driver, same engine, a photo would help, as per GRJ's comment. Measurements of OA length, shoulder diameter/length would help, too. If the screw head ends up recessed in a counterbore in the rod, the screw head diameter would also help.

BTW...Just another suggestion. If you remove an identical screw to provide the above info for us, check to see if it's attractive to a magnet. If so, and if the screw 'fell out' along the layout somewhere during operation, you might also try scanning the track with the magnet. I did that once long ago in my HO days. It's amazing what you'll find!...and hopefully that missing shoulder screw!!

Hang in there.
