Let's start by defining the guitar more accurately. A 1984 "Standard" Stratocaster might have a Freeflyte tremolo like this: https://reverb.com/price-guide/guide/95 ... 4-sunburst
If that's right, trem arms can be found via google (search terms e.g. "freeflyte tremolo arm"). The first link was this: https://www.stratcat.biz/4027-freeflyte.shtml

But if the guitar is something else, post pics.

If you have a screw-in trem arm, test the hole with a screw: the one that glides smoothly back and forth is right. Don't use force, don't screw too deep.
Usually MIA's have size 10-32 UNF. If it's metric, it's most likely M5 but M6 is the alternative (and I'd swear I've met smaller than M5 a long time ago...).

Here's some basics, although I don't agree 100% on everything: https://www.whammyparts.com/faq/193-tremolo-arm-sizes
