i um... would probably avoid welding anything on the oil pan. you could take another hex, slightly larger then strip, put a little locktite on there and hammer it in. wait a little while then unscrew it. i reccomend going to sears and getting a cheap hex bit/socket that you can attatch to a socket wrench. those L shaped Hex drivers are bad news and will get you anytime you are trying to unscrew something that it tight.
