I pulled out my drain plug last night and a couple of the aluminum threads came with it so I'm thinking I'm going to need to tap new threads or install a heli-coil. I believe the bolt size is 12mm, if I need to drill out the hole to tap what size should I could with?
Anyone have recommendations or advice for the best way to fix this? I'm hoping to fix without removing the engine, but haven't checked yet to see if I have enough space so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

IMO...
Either spring for a new case or take what you have apart and have the case welded and then drilled and rethreaded.
