You're referring to the vertical screw thing sticking up in the center of the air cleaner right? That goes thru the middle of the lid and the wing nut screws onto? How severely is it stripped? If there is "some" thread all the way along it's length then smearing JB weld on it and rotating a screw all the way down it when it's hardening might restore threads along its length. I had actually contemplated this when I had my 240D which had a similar problem but I still had just enough thread that it wasn't yet necessary.
