Stupid question about the oil pan drain plug
My dad and I are in a bit of a tiff over the oil pan drain plug. He says that the rubber seal is just an Oring that can be replaced, and I think that its attached to the plug and if i pry it off it will ruin it and I will have to get a new on. It is a little cracked but not leaking yet...so who is right here...
hope its me
hope its me

The seal is not part of the Plug and is replaceable...
If you need one, I believe I have a Couple... I'd have to search... But I'm sure I could toss it in an Envelope for you

you guys are really missing the important thing here...
I get to go tell my dad "i'm right you are wrong"
I am 29 years old and i still love getting to do that! LOL
Mine has a split in the seal that doesnt run all the way to the outside..but if any of you guys have a good used one then by all means

Speaking of that, Brad do you still have my Bag O Seals? Or Did I get it from you?

That seal is replaceable. I find myself replacing it with a new nylon piece every couple years or so. (at least on my GM vehicles it'* replaceable).
Haro is not right on this one!
(maybe he is if he'* running some aftermarket plug....but OEM is replaceable).
