i tapped my pan with a brass barbed fitting and sealed it with JB weld..........holding up just fine......no leaks
if you have access to a welder then do it that way.......if not then be creative.

exactly how i did mine...and all of my friends cars....a 3/4" tap & drill bit were a lil pricey.....you can get 1 or 2 good threads on the fitting and i used epoxy puddy around the edge of the fitting to add a lil reinforment and leak proofin...been workin great...no a dam drop of oil

Re: JB vs. Tig Weld vs. Rubber washers oil return poll (N20civicB18)
I have known people that have used alot of JB weld and it worked without leaks but its a little to ghetto for me.
I used a fitting with a nut and copper crush washers coupled with teflon tape and copper spray gasket maker .... it leaks
Next oil change I am pulling the pan and welding it in. Welding is the obvious best choice in this scenario so even if you have to pay somebody $10 to weld it, thats so cheap there is really no reason to not do it right the first time and save yourself a future head ache.
