Hilicoil ate aluminum thread! Need help.

I'd like to make another attempt to repair the thread.  If failed I will
have no other choice.  The problem that I can not find anywhere stepped
studs or double threaded sleeves.
By the way,  Bentley's torque spec for 6mm allen bolt holding turbo oil
supply line is 25 nm.  It is right? No mistake there?

Thanks.
Konstantin Bogach.
