N X problem please help

The red sealant/locktight supplied with N X kits.I put every thing together years ago.Then maybe a week later I got the purge/heater/etc. Now Im servicing the noids with the new tool I got from N X and cant get the fittings loose with the red s--t on them.Anyways to make a long story short I plugged the purge on the N2o noid with the supplied plug and red stuff before I purchased the purge kit. I'd like to use hole in the noid for the purge but I cant get the plug out.Whats the secret for getting this loose,Im just twisting the allen wrench up.Heat,wd40,or something else?Im not trying to buy a new one due to me damaging the one I have.

apply a little heat, only as much as needed to loosen the plug or fitting. I use a little pen torch long enough to loosen the locktite.

I dont have any access to a pen torch.I have a oxygen/accentalen torch on my welding rig but it has a big tip on it.Im afraid that it might burn something else on the noid.What about a cigarent lighter?
