Rattling under the hood when hot

So there was this terrible rattling under the hood that would be intermittent when the AC was on and it was hot out. Finally got to looking for it yesterday and luckily it was something simple. Its the alternator bracket nut that holds the bracket to the block, is gone not sure if it was never put back on after it was serviced last or it came loose and fell off.
Attached is a pick I found on clubxb. I just need to know what is the size of this nut? http://www.clubxb.com/forums/attachm...-tighten-2.jpg
