It's actually a Time-Sert threaded insert to repair it. They drill out the spark plug hole, re-tap it to the insert size and install the new insert. Don't even have to pull the cylinder head.
You can see the tool kit here on amazon, the actual inserts are around $12 each.
It wasn't a helicoil it was a double sides threaded insert thing. the tool we borrowed was something very similar to this

Except ours had a pin you inserted and broke off, and it was made abundantly clear the aluminum in the threads were the same material as the head.
And the cylinder I'm having issues with us on the same head, but its the front most not the rearmost. Should I still be checking for ground?
