Crank bolt to hold damper

This big bolt was a pain to take out. Probably because it was eating the threads inside the crank snout. Would anybody know if there is one longer than this 2-5/8 length crank bolt?

Yea, threads are destroyed inside as well, but, only as far as the bolt goes in. Perhaps tapping to the next size? Where to get the bolt?

Heli Coil makes crankshaft specific repair kits with deep inserts. The part number you need is 5528-12. It comes with 1 1/8 deep inserts. That's plenty enough threads. Ain't zackly cheap, but will save the crank.
