Measure the hole it drops in .... Its about 8mm I think, use an allan key for sizing.

Even easier, get a magnet and pass it over your lawn where you cleaned it

Take the case to the baring shop and see what fits in the hole. BTW there is two more BB in there too, all the same size by the looks of it.
Or leave the center one out and have 2-low capability (but a funky shift pattern)

3/8 is close to 9.5mm but being a jap box i thought it would have been metric?

All the screwing and unscrewing broke the wire at the base .cut it back with side cutters resolded drop in 3/8 or 9.5 now it works .moral to this story dont loose the B.B.cheers ron
