Default tensioner bolt size?for heli-coil

anyone know the size of the tensioner bolt,because i stripped
the tread on it and i will probably have to re-tap it with a heli coil.

dont use a helicoil.... have if fill welded and retapped.... the timing tenstioner will just pull out again if you use the helicoil. at least thats what happened on a customers car...

take it to someone who knows how to weld aluminum, theyll fill the hole. take the bolt with you, theyll tap the block out and reinstall the same bolt
