I think it is fram as it is orange and they used to run that ad where the guy turns the truck over by hand to get to the drain plug then flips it back over when he is done. I seen them at autozone this weekend but didn't get the name off it. Check frams site....

and what company makes the quick disconnect for easy oil pan drainage? that sounds kinda cool.
also welding in some new threads might be a plan, I wonder if there's something at the hardware
store that could be bolted or welded in to work as a new threaded hole?
thanks for the Ideas!

The rubber-plug type repair plugs generally will work on the most warbled out and thin pans. For a permanent repair of the pan you already have on there, if you are pulling it anyway, cut out a small section around the boogered up drain threads and weld in a section with good threads from any other Mopar pan. I actually got away with doing this once with the pan still on the motor by MIG welding, the oil residue in there got smoking hot but did not catch on fire. Yes it was a desparate situation.
