You've killed the sump plug thread over tightening it, as it's soft alloy it's not too hard. | |

Basically its a replacement thread for the sump plu hole, you'll probably have to have the sump off, most hardware/automotive shops should have one, or a local engineers may sort you out, take both the sump plug and the sump round though :thumbs: | |
