My son has a 1990 Ford Bronco that had the engine (351W) replaced in 2008 that now has 30K on it. First time I removed the oil plug last fall I could tell it had been cross threaded. Put it back in and it leaked for a couple weeks before I bought a "self threading" replacement plug with a rubber washer. Sealed well and didn't have any issues. Before we changed the oil on Sunday we noticed the plug had started to seep a little. After the oil change its now dripping making a mess where ever its parked.

Any other suggestions on how to fix this short of lifting the engine and replacing the oil pan? Ticks me off that with that few of miles on the engine someone had already ruined the oil plug.
