Side engine mount bracket stripped

Hello there guys, while attempting to change out the side engine mount, one of the 2 top bolts (10x60) stripped. Changing out the whole bracket seems like a lot of work, so i am thinking aboutt using a helicoil. Anyone know what helicoil kit I would need for that bolt (10x60)? Any other suggestions on what i should do would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance for the input.

Same thing happened to me around a year ago, I ended up replacing the part because I didn’t have access to a helicoil, it surprisingly wasn’t as bad as I thought to replace it when it came down to doing the work.

bought the part for like $20 online and was a few extra mins of work.
