Default Dipstick will not remount to new oil separator

I just swapped out oil separators on a 2006 V50 2.4. When I went to remount the dipstick to the new oil separator, the mounting hole was not threaded. Just a plain smooth hole. Any suggestions? Maybe some type of rubber grommet? Thanks!

The holes don't come threaded. There is a bracket for a wiring harness connector that also attaches to the housing with two screws. I take the screws and run them in with a cordless impact to thread the holes before installing.
