The "right" solution is to either replace the oil pan, or drop it and take it to a machine shop for repair. I personally would not try to repair it on the van.

Since when does a waterboxer engine have an oil pan ? You want to remove the engine to repair the drain plug ? Whoa ! Better get your check book ready !
