fix for tranny mount?



My left side tranny mount is just hanging by the center
bolt right now.  Last week 2 of the 3 bolts worked loose,
the threads are stripped a bit, and now the 3rd one must have fallen.
The correct way to fix it is with helicoils, but I'm afraid of
drilling into the tranny to tap the holes.  Is there a less 
dangerous solution?  I heard about Permatex form-a-thread on
the BMWMC list, but I don't know if it would hold.

Anyone know off the top of their heads/fiche what size those
3 bolts are?  I need replacements...
