Otherwise glue a _stud_ in there with JB Weld and put a nut on the top.

But I would do that with LockTite.

I'd go for an interference fit... hone the hole carefully and maybe use
a reamer to get it square... lathe a stud just *over* the hole size,
then heat the case, insert the stud, cool. Done.

but, a 1/4" bolt on a tranny? for what? The pan??
