The questions are:
Can I get the plug out without removing the oil pan?
Is it reusable?
If not, where can I get a new plug to fill the D/S hole?

Thanks in advance for any help.
okay to get it out drill a small hole in the center a put a screw in it and pull. the way i plug mine you wont like but i taped it and put a pipe plug one u buy at a auto zone. and the dip stick you have on the d/s wont work on the p/s of the motor sorry you will have to buy a new one for like 5 or 10 $$$
