I have an exhaust hanger for centre pipe but the location thread is damaged from the old bolt which had snapped. Any recommendations what to do ? Anyone else had this issue ? Need to get it on a ramp. Currently zip tied

Re tap the threads.

Drill the whole thing out and then use a rivnut tool in the hole you created.

Yeah not sure what state the thread is in until its on a ramp but rivnut is probably the answer 🤔
