I'm not sure, the plug was in the car when I bought it, and I have changed the oil probably 6 times in two years.

I ordered another LN (it looked longer in thread length and I just saw a post on here recently about a super long oil drain plug, maybe related) as well as a standard non magnetic plug. Will start with the magnetic (long threaded) LN plug and have the standard replacement plug if LN fails again...

I also tempted fate and drove to work (3.25hr round trip with lots of 5mph driving involved). I'm banking on the 10qt oil capacity to hold me over until I can put in the new plug tonight. I'm sure my work loves me for dripping oil everywhere.
