Yikes!!

I've heard tale of some folks around here that can weld them cases.

 

[srcarr52]

Yup. It was just a big let down when I realized those threads don’t belong there.

Easy out with the helicoil?

Just drill out the hole to M6 if an insert for M5 .It looks like the cylinder bolts might be inserts also .There's tricks to inserts besides using "time -serts .Clean the hole out with acetone and use red Loctite. they won't back out .It takes around 400 degrees of heat to release them .

Nope. Some type of wood screw broke off in there.

Stihl and a few others used those blunt end type screws for high impact plastic parts .People have made grave mistakes like using a common wood /sheet metal screw which eventually drove the point through the oil tanks, crankcases . Fact I've had a few welded up to repair them because of this .
