It has been 2500 miles since the supercharger was installed. I went to change the supercharger oil but No oil drain line was installed. Picture is of the bottom of the blower, Is the drain the black plug? or is the allen key piece on the right side of the pic the drain plug. I have a drain line to install for future oil changes.
any ideas on how to get the drain plug out the dimple seems to be blocking any socket from going on

1/4 inch socket and a bunch of extensions should reach the black plug. Getting the braided line on should be a peach once you get the plug out and oil drained.

so the drain plug is the black bolt in the picture. I can get to the bolt no issue i just cant get a socket to go on it because of the dimple/bolt just above the drain plug in the picture

Can you access the hex plug easier? Both plugs should allow you to drain the oil from the supercharger body. Worse case scenario you remove the head unit and install the drain hose. I’d be pissed at who ever Installed that. And forgot the drain line. But I see what your saying about that button head bolt being in the way. One other ghetto thing you could try is get a harbor freight socket. And grind it down to fit between the plug and that button head.
