It looks like a heli-coil kit to the rescue tonight. 5/16" right

I don't know if this was the correct thing to do, but, I taped out the
hole to 3/8"
course thread and got a stud that was 3/8 on one end and 5/16 on the
other.
After I got the tap out I cleaned the hole with degreaser and put the
stud in with Locktite.
