Since you changed the threads to a pipe thread, did you change the bolt too in order to match the threads

We also used some sealing tape on the threads. Of course we flushed it out really good several times. End state - we felt very comfortable with the outcome, but of course I'll be keeping a close eye on it just to make sure.

Yeah, we used a standard plug. It looks like it probably came out of a John Deere. LMAO. Still holding oil though.
