i think Brendo did the same thing, think it was on his 150 ?
the Champion thread repair kits are good too,
they have less chance leaking due to being a solid thing, not a coiled insert.
cost about $12 for 2 new thread inserts

i would use some loctite to hold it/them into the cover, and then just carefully file/grind it back flush with the outside of the cover when done.
it may be worth drilling and tapping out the other thread too while you are at it.
you get 2 or 3 inserts in a pack.
i found them at Sprint Auto here in SA, but i think Repco, Bursons may keep them too? and also some Bearing shops stock the kits too, they're available in a heap of different size threads, and pitches...
here is the 'thread repair' thread i made a while ago too,

Spot on Craig, yeah mate I stripped the oil feed hole on my yx150 and used the thread inserts.
Do exactly what he said, have a look how deep the thread can go in, from memory I drilled a tad deeper to get as much thread in there and then just cut and file flat, defiantly use some permatex to hold it and try to bottom it out if you can just make sure that when you drill it out and tap the insert in you put it in dead straight because being a banjo fitting if its out of whack at all you'll have problems.
