Default stripped thread on squirters!! (block)

I have a gsr block building for a friend of mine but the thread on the block for one of the squirters is stripped. Does anybody here knows what tap I need for it? If re-threading didn't work, can I use inserts? Is it possible to weld it to build some material inside the hole and then re-thread it? The bolt is already kinda loose when i put it in the hole..
Thanks in advance!!!

you running forged internals? if you are, you can just weld them all up and increase oil pressure at the same time. just a option..

That size and pitch is a tough one to find. Bump for an answer.

Not really, I found a tap at an industrial supply in Dallas. I tried putting them in my B20, but it didn't quite work. I still have the tap though, case anyone is interested in it?
