Is rethreading quite a big job then? I think I'll get a fresh set of pedals...
you've boggled the threads in the crank. so to fix a shop would need to do a helicoil. essentially this is drilling out the boggled threads, retreading for an insert, install the insert which has the correct pedal threads.
looking at you pictures I would suggest finding a replacement cranks set and ensuring that you have a right and a left pedal
