#2 drill it out and tap it on my own time. I'm thinking I can drill it, tap it for a hose connector, and still leave the allen hole entact to put it back in.
That's how I read the USMB post and it looks as if it worked out okay, although in reading it again, I note that he drilled for a 1/8 pipe thread, which seems rather small (relative to the 5/8 hose used for the circulating heater. (But then his interest was a petcock-type drain, not necessarily circulation, so the size of the hole and hoses might have been of less concern.)

Will the install be covered in another of your super DIY threads?
