I checked again. Unfortunately in 2 of them I cannot turn the screw by hand. Bear in mind that I can completely put the screw in and out with a screwdriver, it just takes a bit of force. So I guess these are damaged.

I will probably try to find a M5 tap here, I am just nervous because I haven't used one before. From what you write I understand that I will probably get away with it without doing anything but what's the bad case scenario? Is that that the screw might get completely misaligned and further destroy the remaining threads?

I did use several sacrificial screws for this. They there SS Allen screws and they were used twice at maximum. I guess I overtightened them.
