Can anyone recommend the best way to get the old bit out and suggest how to repair/re-thread so I can use it again?

It's brass which will solder well. Clean up the inside as best you can
and solder a suitable brass thing in - maybe a brass bolt or just some
brass rod. Use flux and a small blowtorch. There should be plenty of
area to make a strong enough joint, and the heat may well help too.
