What is the oil drain plug size to remove oil plug in pan?
What size wrench is needed to remove oil plug and are the stock C-6 oil plugs magnetic if not are there any magnetic oil plugs available for the C-6?

Then it wouldn't be factory stock and I would feel like I am doing a butcher job going to that extent. I don't have confidence in that system yet. I'll stick with the magnetic plug thanks...

Fool proof and safe .It not even noticeable. Go to your local auto store and check it out. The biggest problem with factory plug is the gasket-never seem to have one in stock(not that is has to be changed every time)
