oil drain plug wasnt sure where to post this so......
to make a long story short, i made the mistake of paying someone to change my oil last time out. i get under there this time and the bolt on the plug is rounded off!
and they must have impacted it on there or something, because it took me 5 minutes to break the sucker loose with the pliers i was using. and that only further ruined the bolt. 
the filter was about as tight as it possibly could have been too, had to jab it with a screwdriver and twist it off.
now that the rant is over, just curious as to where i can order/buy a new one. i guess a part number would be great if anyone knows it, the chevy place around here wont deal with you without a part number.
thanks in advance,
anthony
