Plenty of future problems if you put in a bolt ... as nobody in their RIGHT MIND puts together Magnesium castings with bolts threaded into the casting!!! Look everywhere ... air-cooled VW engines and transaxles, 356's, 912's, and finally, 911's ... not anything but plugs and hydraulic fittings are used threaded into the case ... given the inherent weakness of Magnesium!
The proper repair is a Time-sert, installed with red Loctite, period. If you decide to forgo reason, and do the bolt thing ... don't be suprised if the case strips out again!
