I'm not a shop expert but I had a broken exhaust manifold stud. When I drilled out the stud remains the drill bit wandered and left me with a sligtlty oversized hole. I tapped it out to 3/8the fine thread and it went back together nicely. A good shop would do the Helicoils but from a DIY point of view you'd be in and out of there in minute with oversize tap job.
