Okay, so today while changing my oil I used a torque wrench to tighten the oil filter cover bolts (why the f*ck did I do that??) and stripped the thread that the short one bolts to, not completely though it's still tight enough for me not to be able to screw it off by hand.

Thinking of getting a longer bolt if there are threads that are still intact at the end? Anyone know if this is possible? I will fix this properly at the next oil change. As I understand the bolt is and m6 x 40mm , would a 50mm and a couple of washers and a little blue loctite be fine temporarily, it wouldn't block the oil flow or something like that?

Thanks guys.
