After stripping the threads on the aluminum pan on my Dodge Neon 
commuter car, I, now use "Fumoto" valves on all my street cars (Neon, 
Mazda 6S, Ford F150, Mustang GT).  They're relatively cheap and seem to 
work well.

Are you sure your Mazda 6 has a steel pan?  Our Mazda 6S (V-6 Duratec) 
has an aluminum pan
