Anyway I'm thinking after a bunch of oil changes it might have loosen a bit and I want a socket that will fit over it properly so I can tighten it properly.
Might consider a local machine shop. When installing my Perrin oil cooler, I brought my socket in to put on their lathe. I had to ask them to thin the wall out a lot to make it fit, but they did a great job and only charged ~$15.
