Will Campagnolo Rear Dropout Adjuster Screws fit on Gippiemme dropout?

Are all screws the same size? I have Gippiemme dropouts and one screw is bent, I can only find Campagnolo replacements. Will they fit? Are all screws the same diameter? And how good were the Gippiemme components?
Thanks in advance.
Pictures, so you can see what I mean.

From what i could see most screws are 3 mm. So i went to the hardware store bought a cheap 3 mm screw it fit my Zeus dropouts, then found the new screws on ebay by reading the item details most tell you the thread size. You can if possible take your bike to the hardware store to find the correct thread.

I recently was unable to remove one from a drop out. I now have to try to drill it out. I am not looking forward to the process!. There are stainless ones available:

Virtually all dropouts use 3mm x 0.5mm thread adjusters (some old and rare Campagnolo dropouts use 4mm ones), but the lengths vary. Both Campagnolo and Gipiemme offered a number of different styles. Yours look to be similar to the short-slot Campagnolo 1010B dropout.

I wonder if such applies to the always esoteric French brands like Simplex Huret and Vitus. As typically, the French always want to throw everyone a curve by having a different thread pitch or something...... just to be different? Heck,! Simplex don't even use springs on their dropout adjusters, but tiny black pucks made of Delrin (of course) to keep the adjusters from backing out.....
