It's been years, but the last time I had to deal with a stuck
oil drain plug (Hi, John!), the final solution was to cross 
drill it and put a sacrificial pin punch through the hole.
The extra length of the pin punch (pointed down) provided
the required leverage (with suitable application of the BFH).

By all means, use Teflon tape on the plugs. Works a treat.
