Looking at that threaded hole it appears that the two halves may not line up well. This may not allow for a bolt to go all the way through. When looking at it I'm not sure that it is threaded any longer. Is it necessary to go through or would it just screw into the one side?  If it only goes in one side and it has no thread is this a proper place for a helicoil?
Thanks

If you have the Otto part you can see that the brace comes back from the pick up housing parallel to the pick up tube and will line up with the threaded hole at the split in the block halves.  I'm not sure what the bolt size is 5/16 x 20?, but you can try a few from your bucket of bolts and see.  So, if you remove the current pick up and put the the Otto unit in all should line up nicely.
