So I go to supply my oil from the oil filter housing and the plug is rounded out. I guess the previous owner of the car did it. Is there somewhere else to get the oil supply. Or does anybody have any ideals on how to get the plug out?
 
Those plugs need to be heated first before removal...the "locktite" that the factory uses needs to be melted some to help remove the plug...if you don't it will strip the plug

Since its already stripped, drill a hole in it and use a easy-out thingy to remove it...but again, make sure you heat it up before applying torque on it to remove it.
