The threads & the flares are different. The Ford cyl has 3/8" UNF nuts & ball flares (these are also called "drill point" flares).
The LX will have larger diameter nuts & inverted (double) flares.
NOTE: Single flares are not legal on brake systems in cars.
I'd make up some new pipes, they are not very expensive.

Yes, the lines are still 3-16".
The best way to sort the rear pipe is to get a flare done near the firewall so you can use a joiner & then just make up new short lines.
