n:
is this hole a thru hole or is it one sided. thing is getting it centered on
your old oversize hole. if yo can drill from the backside, then you might have a
better chance to get it centered.

a thread insert will fit into a larger oversize threaded hole. thing is it might
be a shorter thread length than original. hou might be able to stack 2 inserts
to get the length you need.

helicoil and keyserts are good name brands. believe it or not, i have had my
best luck getting metric ones from napa!

good luck
