yes thats an option i had in mind , known as a dowty bolt, im sure it would work but would take longer to drain and might not empty sump completley as its a bolt within a bolt so it will hold onto more oil than the bolt removed. plus the complication of holding the origional nut still whilst undoing the inesrted bolt at the same time and then same thing doing back up
