Very easy to get out, get a tap and thread the bushing. Thread a bolt into the threads with a large washer then use two pry bars or screw drivers on the washer to force it out.

I've seen a few threads where people had problems because the plug didn't come installed. Try a search, I'm sure you'll find the threads.
