I was taking apart my oil housing and found this bolt hole stripped and cant even tighten it at all. The other one and 2 on top are fine. Should I buy a new housing for peace of mind?

I've put a truck together that the owner didn't want to spend the money for the new housing, due to this exact issue. I told him it's a 50/50 chance of it leaking. It never did leak/ fail, but I was certainly cautious of it.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. It's happened to me too. Of course, you can probably find a good used one on ebay or something for a good price if you want.
