Oil drain tube

For those kind of repairs, we use a wire welder, and an air hose, weld a couple of seconds, and the put the air hose on the weld spot, a 1/2 inch away, for about 15 to 30 seconds, or what ever it takes to cool. We use 175 pounds. It doesn't take long. Also works great when you hammer weld. Weld about 1/2 inch, hammer, and cool with a air hose. Quick, and no warpage .

Someone had the bright idea to install a cork seal of some type in the rear main on my A I believe as a attempt to mimic a seal of some sort. In the process they plugged the drain tube. Always amazed at how people are smarter then the engineers.
