1199 Oil Filter Cap Threads Rung

Hi, I've just rung the threads in one of the holes in the casing that holds the oil filter, What can I do to fix this? Can I get the hole re threaded/tapped again? Will I be able to use the same bolt again as the threads on it don't seem to be damaged.

 

Hi, thanks for the reply, it’s not the filter cap but the engine casing where the bolts that hold the filter cap in place go, I have damaged the threads in one hole

 

Thanks for the advice the helicoil worked a treat,
