Spark plug thread repair

Anyone know if theres a spark plug thread repair kit for the 09 and up 3v 4.6. Have number 1 plug just spinning. Its giving me a intermittent hard miss and blinking check engine light. Thanks for any input.

I use a heli-coil repair set I got from O'Reillys. I used it on a 5.4 though. Don't know if the thread size is the same. Comes with a few different length sleeves depending on the length of the plug. Was very easy to use and vehicle has been good for the past 3 years.
