The problem with cutting and drilling a die though is that it is HSS (hardened steel)

I think the two halfs of the die could be drilled and tapped with small cup screws. A machinist could probably knock it off fairly easily. Maybe a small clamp would serve, for as you say, it's really chasing and cleaning, not making new threads.
