Do you have to drill a new hole in the pan or does the adapter plug connect were the dip stick goes in the pan?

The kits replace the drain plug. You need to find the correct thread for the hose kit for whatever engine you have.

Re: Adding Oil Pan Drain Hose

Got this by PM. I'm hoping CJ will come back here:

I have a 2001 5.7l volvo penta. There is no drain plug on the oil pan so I guess I either drill a hole or find some adapter for the dip stick were it goes into the bottom of the oil pan?

The dipstick uses the drain plug hole on the Volvo. I would have to ask why he wants a hose?
