Whenever you tap or drill and you don't want filings to drop in use grease in the drill or tap. NAPA sell a thread repair kit with a setting tool. It looks like it deforms the insert into the head to leave a surface for the gasket to seat. It looks like the insert has a knurled surface on the OD and when you drive the setting tool, sfter threading it in, the insert is mechanically locked in place. Looks interesting.
