CQ, you might also try some JB Weld on the helicoil. I've done that once (obviously need to be very careful not to get it on the internal threads) and it worked perfect and has held solid for about 3 years but wasn't in such a high temp/high pressure spot. I doubt you'll get a locktite product to hold as well. IMHO.
