While installing the pressure plate one of the bolts snapped. So I am wondering if the pressure plate bolts are the 3/8"-16x1" or if they are the 5/16-18x1"?

There is no mention of thread form in the data base, just take one of the good bolts into a industrial hardware and get it matched in grade 6 hardness.
