Couldn’t you fit an oversize tapered sump plug in situ? There might be a bit of swarf but should be able to get most of it out with a flush.

there would be swarf for sure and you need to be sure when your doing 80mph + that  the swarf isnt about to give your engine a seize, how would know it was all out? its a guess even post flush.  this is a safer way around it.
