Doubt you will find too many shops that will touch this with a 10 ft pole.
In rereading the OPs post, if the "ear" is in tact and all that is wrong is no threads, you can try a "helicoil" insert..
See HERE
Catalog and instructions HERE
In a nutshell, oversize tap and then the helicoil is inserted which brings the diameter back to the correct size for the bolt..
Should be able to buy in a kit with proper drill bit, tap and tools needed to do the job..
