If some are stripped, try just running a proper tap (M6x1.00 I think) and try threading in a bolt. If it seems to feel good, just let it be then. Might even have to helicoil some of the holes.

If the stripped holes are right next to each other your probly going to wanna try to fix them, if their not it "might" not leak.... depends on where it is too, if its on a corner or just the side.
