Assuming the probability distribution is gaussian, I’d guess something like 3.5 to 4 times as large. I dont remember if that specific probability density function is gaussian or not, but assuming a distribution is gaussian is usually a safe bet

How big would the body need to be for it to have a 99.9% chance for the electrons to be there?

it is not gaussian. for first electron, it is closer to poissonian

Just integrate phi squared over the sphere space, and with that set to .999, solve for r. Use something like Maple if the algebra if you’re a wimp.
