Stripped out threads on flywheel housing

Putting my trans back, and I've got two bolts that won't tighten due to stripped threads in the housing....

Any way to fix these threads while on the car?

Does anyone have a good source for a new flywheel housing? Can they still be bought new?

Thanks!

Depending on how stripped the threads are, you might be able to fix them with a thread tap.
