You caught my attention with that comment. When you say "CNC out a new gear", which gear are you referring to?

Is the frame under the drain plug a solid welded piece, or is it removable? Could the frame be easily modified to create a free space for the drain plug? Could an existing frame tube be "formed" to clear the drain plug?
