On the boss, if just stripped and still well seated in the frame...., If you can't get a heliocoil that small, I would go to the next closest size up (either metric or SAE) and carefully re-tap the threads and go to a larger bolt.
On the fork...If you email Cannondale's contact/tech suppport folks and actually get a meaningful response (not an automated "thank you for your question and we will get back to you on that.......like NEVER!) please do a follow up post here and share your success story with them.
Good luck.
