I think bleeder screws are about 10 ft-lbs. Don't quote me, should always check the manual

I ended up ordering these:
Bleeder screw hole repair

Doorman's own website says they'll work with 10mm bleed screws, and the amazon listing says the outer sleeve is 1/4 NPT, which is larger than the 7/16 I bored out too. Hopefully this will work. I'll take pics and report back.
