Bend over and grab your ankles!!
I had a simular problem on my car, tried EVERY trick, nothing ended up working besides a new manifold.

If you didnt tap it sideways and you still have some metal to work with on the manifold, retap and use a helicoil Hope you do or get something I couldnt think of to work, I know ripping off the TPI on my car for the first time was a b*tch, dunno about the V6 mpfi

Goodluck, let us know what works
