Regretfully, no I haven't tried a self-tapping drain bolt. Not knowing how thick the threaded area is.....it would be worth a try. Even if it doesn't work, you'll still have other options.
I didn't mention it, but I was thinking about Alumiweld. If you are really good with your hands and a propane torch, you could use this as a last ditch effort to build back the metal.

For the price of a self-tapper, it wouldn't hurt to start there and continue to more agressive fixes.
