180 won't work, it'* triagonal. 120. The tab on the connector should be towards the rear of the car.

They call that cross threaded. The right tap and die can straighten those right up. (or limp it to Oregon, you know someone there probably has extras...lol)

A threaded hole can usually be fixed/cleaned up by running the correct size tap through it, and a screw or bolt with slightly damaged threads can be repaired by running it into a die.
