Anyone confirm this?

Yep, the two round pins keep the balancer from spinning on the crankshaft snout and the large bolt keeps it tight.
You can "chase" the threads with the proper sized tap to clean out the debri and then use a new bolt with a drop of red locktite.
If it won't hold the proper torque you MIGHT be able to install a "time cert". They are a bit heavier than heli-coils and more reliable. Drilling and tapping the crank end may prove to be tough, but not impossible.
