The housing is not thick enough to hold a thread. Moser has housing fills and drains that come with a weld in bung and plug. I use a step drill after I predrill with a 1/4" drill.

This is a scary thread. You almost need to drill the hole and have a female drain and male fill bung welded in place to do it properly. Do not just drill and tap the housing there would only be maybe 2 good threads to hold it. The fill would not be too bad but I would hate to have that done on the drain. That is just asking for trouble.
