      If you did go with Helicils then M2.5 metric or #3-48UNC would be closest to the original screw diameter and pitch, As you say the very small whitworth threads would be hard to find a helicoil for so probably the only way to stay with 3/32" whit would be to drill out quite a bit larger and bond in some inserts with JBWeld made to fit with the 3/32" thread.

        I also checked helicoil, but it looks like that this system isn’t available for 3/32“ threats.

        .

        True … but I would personally consider a UNC HeliCoil to be a significant upgrade.
