I don't believe that you can post if you are not logged in.
Need more info
1st are you trying to clean up the threads?
Trying to go to above bigger size?
Or trying to repair with helicoil?

Yes, could not post, not logged in, which surprised me. Not trying to change threads from an M6 1 X 12mm which is what my search says is the correct size. Just want to clean out threads from old buggered screw I drilled out which left screw threads from old screw. That okay?

Run the correct thread tap through hole to see if hole/thread will hold, if not drill hole to the next size for next larger screw and get the correct tap.

Yes that is ok
When you get the tap lay one of the bolts on top of the metric tap to see if is the same thread.
