Re: Helicoil
Yes it will have to be embedded more inside or maybe get someone to weld on that piece(aluminium) and insert coil.
Or put a timesert/ threaded insert. That will work just make sure the insert is deep enough.

Re: Helicoil
Those bolts are torqued down with massive amounts of torque, so a helicoil will strip very easily, so don't even go that route.
First stage torque - 3Nm
Second stage - 90 degrees
Third stage - 180 degrees
A Timesert thread repair will work, read about it being done on a few motors and no issues.
