Danny,
Actually the square of the plug takes a 7/16" tool. A good fastener or
hardware supply place can sell you a bit of 7/16" square keystock. Cut a
piece a couple of inches long, smooth off the edges and use it with an open
end wrench to remove the plug.

Subject: [Healeys] I give up: how do I remove the differential drain plug?
Greetings,
I replaced the front seal in my BT7's differential and I thought topping it
off would be the easy part. Turns out not so! Some googling has revealed
that it is a 7/8" square drive plug. The only advice I've seen is to make my
own tool by grinding down a 1/2" drive extension to fit. Well, I don't have
a grinder. Surely there's an easier way? Doesn't SOMEONE make a tool for
this?
Thanks,
-Danny
