Almost definitely proprietary. Only thing similar I can think of is the outlets for a water pressure tank that have a 1/4" outlet for a pressure valve or switch, but I don't know the specific name for those, either, or if they'd accommodate your thermistor.

I was afraid of that. Thanks.

Take it to a specialty plumbing supply. They should have the part or at least be able to cobble you something together to replace it.

You can find a ball valve with m10 threaded temperature probe hole pretty easy.

I feel like this could definitely be made out of standard parts from a plumbing supply.
worst case scenario take it to a machine shop and ask if they can lathe/weld you something similar. you'll pay out the ass but I'm sure they can do it. I paid like 40 dollars for 2 tiny aluminum spacers that had to be a precise height.

i would try and take a soldering iron and smooth out the crack. then get a male to female adapter and epoxy that onto the cracked threaded end. and then to top it off with a coat of epoxy or whatever over the whole thing

Isn't that just a test point union? Very standard part for gas appliance installs.
Not familiar with water heaters but it might be the place to start looking.
