HI pepito54 I don't know much about mason bees but went looking for information for you.
According to this site cedar is fine.

This site tells how to make a mason bee house and for your size wood recommends 5/16 of an inch drill bit for mason bees. It says drill the holes 3 1/2 inches deep.

Good luck
