Default bleed nozzle stripped threads.......help!

Bought some gold Brembos for my classic a while back. Been fitting 'em on and just noticed threads have been stripped/crossed on one of the bleed nipples/nozzles
Problem is I can't return 'em because I've had them for so long

Any sugestions ?? Anyway to repair this ??

Default

carefully retap the tread with the correct tread tapper.

go to a car/tool shop. take the caliper and see if he has the right size.

then retap the thread and replace bleed nipple with a new one.
