    12m to 13m is the kit needed . The rubber plug will work but their a pain in the rear to get back out once installed .
    Neat kit. I have used Time Serts back in the day. Worked for a race shop for 5 years (cars). We had a complete kit of time serts. Never liked the heli coil. But that's me.

    Update.....

    After letting the machine drain dry. I cleaned the sump with q-tips and break cleaner. Was about to do a retap however we noticed on the top side of the sump there is a pea size piece missing.

    Went the RTV route until spring time to weld in an aluminum rod and new tap

    Put bolt back in. It threads but won't snug up....

    It will likely leak and your drain plug might fall out while riding it . The rubber expansion plug I posted is likely a safer bet and less likely to leak if properly installed.

    You MUST disassemble the engine if you plan to weld, drill, and re-tap it . Also, If you disassemble it, I would simply put a time sert with a larger plug or big sert with the same size plug . Welding and using the aluminum for the threads again is not the best thing to do.
