Default lsvtec-b16 head, how do i take out the larger plug for the oil feed???

the larger plug, intake side of the head right behind the distributor. its the one with the allen. whats the best way to take it off. i had the allen wrench in there with about a 1ft pipe over the end of it. it kinda felt like it was gonna start to strip the plug, so i stopped? what do u guys think? just get a allen socket and use an air wratchet???

I just used the allen with plenty of lot's of penetrating lube (left it over night). If you strip it, no biggie. Just drill it to use an extractor.
