My experience of helicoils for the sump is you need to use a Helicoil plug tap to stop the inserts being threaded into a tapered thread as left by the normal taper tap. This is due to the holes in the crankcase being quite shallow.
A plug tap or bottom tap can be made by getting another tapered Helicoil tap and shortening it without overheating it.
I am sure others have views on this.
