Yup plus I'm missing all 4 plug electrodes. Sad times indeed.

So can you see thread material on the plug? Are you absolutely certain it
didn't just loosen up?

I'd be afraid of metal shavings getting into the cylinder if you tried an in
situ helicoil.  I'm sure it can be done -- just not sure I'd risk it.
