Open out to a bigger size and find/make a plug to suit.

Problem will be the cost of a tap to cut a one-off thread. Do you know someone who has access to large BSP taps ? BSP plugs are available (not sure about brass in the bigger sizes though).

Thanks Colin, that's what I thought I would have to do. I will be rebuilding the engine next year so I will find an engine builder and talk to them, they should have some idea of options.
