Might work if the threads just need to be cleaned up. There are quite
a few kits for stripped out oil drain plugs. The problem is the cheap
ones are just a slightly oversized tap with a selection of oversized
plugs. The kits that are more like helicoils are expensive.
This bung might be able to be welded on by a shop if the threads are
right:

If the manifold is cast iron, welding can be tricky. Brazing may be
better. A good shop will know the best approach.
* If it's new enough to have O2 sensors , chances are pretty good the
manifold is steel tube .
