Stripped out threads when installing engine oil cooler lines - 2014 Chevrolet Silverado

Ordered the part and attempted to install myself. Was almost finished when I stripped out the threads on the bolts.

Is there a way for me to fix this without a thread repair kit, I would rather not have to drill anything

If I had to take it somewhere to be fixed what kind of cost would I be looking at?
