OK, thank for all the advice re. tools. Someone did send the required
dimensions so all is well.
It occurred to me that one might forget about all these tools and dimensions
if one were able to weld(?) a biggish nut onto the brass drain plug????
Of course, "brass" is the key word. Is it brass in fact? And can it be
welded? A quick Google suggests brazing/silver solder.......
Plastic Metal as, I think, we call it or JB Weld would be worth a try? If it
failed, one would be no worse off...

I have the socket-like tool from the British Tool Company as well.  It works
OK, but it can slip off.  I put a small floor jack under the socket wrench
to keep it engaged while breaking it loose.

I got mine from British Car Specialist years ago. I believe Moss carries one
also.
