Looks like a good deal, the L&N magnetic drain plug is a lot more $. Also, I like the hex head rather than a hex key

Sorry

This is my 3rd oil change in 2 years, always Mobil 1 European formula

As for the Hex Key it is 8mm and I have never had a problem...19 foot pounds with my torque wrench and no leaks (new washer every time)

I kinda like this one
