In my journeyman prototype machinist days we used Heli-Coils all the time for pipe threads in soft material. Done properly, they will absolutely not leak and will probably outlast the rest of the car! However, on an odd casting shape like this, better to have a carburetor shop handle it as they have all the proper tools. I had several done locally by Ace Fuel Systems and never a drop after the repairs.
