Take a picture and post it so people will know exactly what your dealing with.. there are many SC Macgyvers on here
I had the same problem on a different part, and I just used a thin drill bit to drill a hole into the stripped area, then I used a slighlty larger drill bit to wedge in ( i tapped it in with a hammer ) then I used needle nose plyers to turn the drill bit clockwise. Might work for your situation. Good luck
