Heli-coil is only way to repair. However, you need to pull the sparkplug tube. That is pressed into cylinder head, and is usually damaged on removal. Once you get it out, make sure you put gear grease on the helicoil tap to catch any metal shavings. Follow the instructions, you should be ok. Just make sure to replace the tube if you damage it, and your going to need a valve cover gasket. Have the parts before you do the job so your prepared.
