Stripped Camshaft Bolt Thread

Hey guys, what up

 

So, putting back together my hyundai tiburon 2000 after a head gasket change, I stripped the thread out of one of the exhaust camshaft bearing cap bolt holes, number 4 on the inside, more than half the thread came out with the bolt.

 

However, the remaining threads still picked up on the bolt, so I snug it back with some medium threadlocker and the other bolt well tight with threadlocker too.

 

What do you guys think? I'm toast or is there some chance of it working proper for a while at least? Haven't started the engine yet and doing a helicoil is not an option at this moment.

What the heck? Give it a try. If the other side molds is perfectly fine, I could very well hold up
