Ther is a device called a "Re-Nu Thread Insert".  It is a solid insert,
unlike the helicoil, and has a locking element on the OD to lock it in the
hole once it is installed.  They are available from J&L Industrial Supply,
1-800-521-9520.  I urge you to persist with repairing the existing holes by
using something like this.  Trying to cobble up something with metric bolts
etc. is asking for trouble in the future.
